Nirvana/German live bootleg question

Expert: Jennifer Hollman - 3/30/2006


Question
Jennifer,
I received a Nirvana album called "Pain".  It was apparently recorded in West Germany in the early 90's, the album has 16 tracks some of which were taken from the MTV Unplugged show...and what appears to be various live recordings in Europe because of "swishy" sound quality.  Very cool CD, but I can't find it anywhere on the web.  

Any sites you know of that know about Nirvana bootlegs?

I'd like to know something about this CD and what it may be worth.

Dave

Expertise

I can answer questions about the release history of NIRVANA from 1989-Present, questions about the history of the band, life & death of Kurt Cobain, the remaining members of NIRVANA, and most questions about his family. I can fact check tour dates, live shows, and just about anything related.

Experience

I helped out Carrie Borzillo, rock new editor for cdnow.com (now amazon.com) with fact checking, an interview, eyewitness account and was given special thanks in her book Eyewitness Nirvana. I've been studying NIRVANA since 1993 and have read literally thousands of books, magazine articles, and other publications throughout the last decade and a half. My reference collection is huge with just about every book, entire release catalog, and more from all around the world. I started volunteering for AllExpterts.com in 1999 before it was purchased by About.com sometime in the early 00's. You can find all of the answers to previously asked public question dating back to 1999. I wrote, edited, and published a NIRVANA newsletter (NIRVANA FOREVER), and online zine (About a Son; Lithium) that both ran 7 years on America Online. I've founded and sistered a lot of NIRVANA communities on LiveJournal.com (NIRVANA FOREVER, Kurt & Jim, and NIRVANA Elitests), and Yahoo.com (NIRVANA FOREVER).
