Nirvana Nirvana Best Of

Introducing "Nirvana: Best Of," the perfect introduction to the iconic grunge band that defined a generation. This compilation album, released in October 2002, not only showcases Nirvana's greatest hits but also includes the highly anticipated new track "You Know You're Right."

"Nirvana: Best Of" is more than just an album; it's a testament to the band's enduring legacy and a resolution to a long-standing legal dispute. The album's release marked the end of a contentious battle between Kurt Cobain's widow, Courtney Love, and the surviving Nirvana members, Krist Novoselic and Dave Grohl.

At the heart of the dispute was the remarkable song "You Know You're Right," recorded during Nirvana's final studio session in January 1994. Novoselic and Grohl had longed to release it as part of a Nirvana rarities box set. However, Love opposed the song's release and took legal action against Novoselic and Grohl in a battle for control over Nirvana's legacy.

Love firmly believed that "You Know You're Right" held tremendous artistic and commercial value, and she didn't want it to be buried in a box set. Instead, she envisioned it as the centerpiece of a single-disc compilation, drawing a parallel to The Beatles' iconic "1" album.

"Nirvana: Best Of" is a testament to the band's enduring impact on music history. With classics like "Smells Like Teen Spirit," "Come as You Are," and "Lithium," as well as the long-awaited "You Know You're Right," this compilation captures the essence of Nirvana's revolutionary sound.
