3.0 out of 5 stars You're all confused..., October 6, 2002

This set has NOTHING to do with Kurt Cobain. The person praising it has obviously never heard it, and the other was disappointed because he did not read the description. This is the British cult/rock group NIRVANA. They sound nothing even remotely similar to eachother. The bands having the same name is a huge problem for any collector, though. I offer this advice: Find it at the store before ordering (you'll probably find that AMAZON's price is well below the store). That way you can SEE if it's the correct group.

4.0 out of 5 stars The first and still the best, March 19, 2003

This review is from: Chemistry (Audio CD)

this is a superb box set. 51 tracks of what might be called Chamber rock. Lots of lush Orchestration with Harpsicord and great vocals. This is in no way anything like the 90s Nirvana and thank God for that. My only bit of nitpicking is that I would have liked the book inside to have give more information on the dates of the songs and when they were originally released. But thats a small problem...if you are into classic British Psychedelia......go for this

4.0 out of 5 stars Great selection of tracks, info lacking, January 4, 2004

This review is from: Chemistry (Audio CD)

The 60s (UK) Nirvana is absolute magic for certain moods; their songs possessed quite the same haunting quality as the Moodies' "Ride My See-Saw" and The Guess Who's "These Eyes", but also their own, indescribable tranquilizing "X-Factor", which is guaranteed to put you in a state of dream, NOT sleep. The selection on offer here is good and complete, yet info is sorely lacking in the enclosed booklet; we don't even know which tracks are rarities and previously unreleased's. Another minor gripe is Edsel's choice to mix in the 80s "reunion" tracks, driven by a drum machine together with the vintage tracks from the 60s and 70s. Other than that, heartily recommended.
