Nirvana fans look forward to November each year, ever since ’02, when “the band” put out the self-titled greatest hits compilation that featured then-new song, “You Know You’re Right”. Well, tradition continues, and come November 3rd, Sub Pop will re-issue the band’s seminal 1989 debut, Bleach, all in celebration of the album’s 20th anniversary. Yes, it’s been 20 years, already.

Remastered by original producer Jack Endino, Bleach finds itself with the typically unnecessary reworkings, though fans will want to pony up the money, as the “deluxe edition” includes a rare, never-before-released live bootleg from Portland in 1990. So, for those that have always wanted some older, older live material, without all the grease and grit, then this grungy goodie bag is for you. What’s more, there’s some booklet with unseen photos, too. Though, haven’t we “seen” enough (e.g. last year’s Cobain Unseen, for example)?

Call me when that Live at Reading DVD hits streets.
