Well, you're off to a good start.

Originally posted by RUMMY:So with this top albums list coming up it got me thinking: What is PJ's fifth-best album? In whatever order you'd like to put them, their first three are without a doubt their best three and Yield at #4 is a no-brainer for me. But what comes next?

Originally posted by RUMMY:Ron, I am hoping that you can help me here. Also, I might be wrong but I don't think there's a Nirvana topic on this site (I'm not really in the mood to start one either) so I thought this would be as good of a place as any to pose/post this question:

Are there any EXCELLENT/HIGH-QUALITY Nirvana shows out there from 1993 that cover a good portion of In Utero. I've done a bit of searching and can only seem to find shows with cut songs, extreme edits (e.g., MTV Live and Loud), or simply low sound quality.

Any suggestions? It'd be nice to get something that complements that Live at Reading show that includes almost all of Nevermind.

Originally posted by RUMMY:Fair enough. I do REALLY like five or so songs (Sometimes, Hail Hail, IN MY TREE, Present Tense, and Off He Goes) from it but then a gap appears. It's not that I don't like the other songs (I do) but I also think that Binaural and Riot Act are both worth considering.

Originally posted by RUMMY:No,no, Ed. I didn't forget them. I just rate them below the other five.

Admittedly, "Habit" and, especially, "Lukin" have really grown on me over the past year. However, if I'm not in the mood for something loud/chaotic, I prefer to skip over those two songs. That said, there's always the gorgeous 2010 Night 2 version of "Lukin" to turn to.

As for "Red Mosquito" and "Smile," for whatever reason, I don't like them nearly as much as the others. I guess I find them a bit too...subdued...and I dislike the harmonica in "Smile."
