To say it simply, I am a huge Nirvana fan. With that said, I was quite surprised when I came across this recording and had zero knowledge of it. This is a record that Dave Grohl made between 1990 and 1991 while he was playing drums for Nirvana. He went under the pseudonym Late! and It was only released on cassette. The story is quite interesting and If you'd like, you can read more about it here. It seems that Dave Grohl played every instrument on this record, like he did for the debut Foo Fighters record. Pocketwatch also has a great acoustic version of Marigold, a song that Grohl wrote in which Nirvana performed and released as a b-side. This is a great, fist pumping rock album. It moves with thick power chords and fast drumbeats but has the occasional acoustic song tossed in there. This record is nice on the ears, especially when you feel you've heard every Nirvana song released.
