Editorial Review:
Marking the 20th Anniversary of Nirvana s debut album, Sub Pop will re-issue the Platinum Certified Bleach on November 3, 2009. This expanded double-LP will include a never-before-released live performance, special packaging and the first run of the double-LP will be on 180g white vinyl (the first run of the original LP was also on white vinyl). Originally recorded over three sessions with producer Jack Endino at Seattle s Reciprocal Recording Studios in December 1988 and January 1989, Bleach was released in June of 1989 and remains unequivocally/unsurprisingly Sub Pop s very favorite Nirvana full-length. The album initially sold 40,000 copies, but was brought into the international spotlight following the release and worldwide success of their 1991 sophomore effort, Nevermind. Subsequently Bleach went on to sell 1.7 million copies in the US alone, according to Nielsen SoundScan. This 20th Anniversary Edition has been re-mastered from the original tapes at Sterling Sound in a session overseen by producer Jack Endino. This edition will include an unreleased live recording of a complete February 9th, 1990 show at the Pine Street Theatre in Portland, Oregon. The show features performances of Love Buzz, About a Girl and a cover of The Vaselines song Molly s Lips and has been re-mixed from the original tapes by Endino (complete track listing below). A 16-page LP booklet which includes candid photos of the band not previously released to the public will also be included in this deluxe edition.
Bleach (20th Anniversary Deluxe Edtion) Reviews:
a great re-issue 
2009-12-25 - It's hard to believe that this album is 20 years old, but it stills sounds as good as it did when I first heard it in 1991.
The tracks have been remastered, so they have more volume and punch than the earlier CD releases. The live tracks are an added bonus that any Nirvana fan will appreciate.
It comes in a nice tri-fold eco pack and has a photo album in the center, and the CD in a sleeve on the right. The CD cover looks to have been an original Cobain artwork. It really looks nice, and sounds better than ever. I can't wait until Nevermind and In Utero are re-mastered, because I'll definitely be buying them.
The same but different 
2009-12-21 - This CD sound almost the same as the original recording but somehow it feels different (better). If you are a Nirvana fan, buy it.
An embryonic Nirvana... 
2009-12-18 - Don't get me wrong, this is not a bad album by any any means. The first 5 songs on the album are really great Nirvana, it's just not as cohesive as their other works. The live material on here is mediocre, "Been A Son" is the standout. Can't wait for the 20th Anniversary edition of "In Utero!"
Great version of a classic.
2009-12-16 - The remix sounds fantastic. And the live tracks are a great addition to any fans collection. Must buy!
Classic Kurt
2009-12-13 - This is a fantastic disc for Nirvana fans. It includes some really great photographs of the guys, and the best ones of Kurt I've ever seen. Pur, raw,Classic Nirvana. And well worth the great deal I got.
