Nevermind (First press error, no Endless Nameless)

~ Release by Nirvana (see all versions of this release, 88 available)

Annotation

Original release missed off the last track, Endless, Nameless, and ended with Something in the Way at 3:51 in length. According to Wikipedia and other sources this was an error and only 20,000 were pressed before the error was corrected.

This version of the disk has also been repressed many times, as can be seen by the multiple discIDs currently attached to this release. (Discogs has 20+ variations like this with and without IFPI codes) (Note added Sept 2021)
