From Digital Nirvana:
This disc contains the introduction
by Jesse Burnstein where he introduces
"the mystery guest; NIR-VANA!"
(the intro is missing on "Christmas in Seattle"
and "New Years Eve"). The treble isn't as high
as "Christmas In Seattle" and is probably a
slightly better recording. "Live in Seattle"
is an audience recording that starts out a
little overdriven, but is consistent and clear
after the first track. The early date and quality
of this recording make it a real treat for collectors
and is a "must have" for people who like Bleach Era shows
(technically this is "pre-Bleach"... heh heh).

During the show, you can hear parts of songs where a
reverb (echo) type of effect is heard... if you listen
closely you can hear a woman say "I think they should
ditch the effects!" after Mexican Seafood. The set list
is much different than what they later used and many of
the songs were not performed very often. Mr. Moustache
has alternate lyrics. "Hairspray Queen" is probably the
highlight of the show... the performance is great!

This is a unique disc because of the date.
This is a favorite among bootleg collectors and is highly recommended.
