The Nirvana box set "With the Lights
Out" will take a chronological look at
the Kurt Cobain-led band's brief but
enormously influential career, beginning
with a Led Zeppelin cover from its
debut show in 1987 to Cobain solo
acoustic performances just prior to his
1994 suicide. The three-CD/one-DVD
package is due Nov. 23 via Geffen/UME.

Kicking off with a run through Led
Zeppelin's "Heartbreaker," disc one
sports early versions of familiar tracks
like "Floyd the Barber," "Polly" and
"About a Girl," demo recordings of the
Leadbelly tracks "Grey Goose," "They
Hung Him on a Cross" and "Ain't It a
Shame" and undated tracks presumed to
have been recorded in 1987 or 1988, such "
as "Beans," "Clean Up Before She Comes"
and "Don't Want It All."

Disc two includes demos for the classic
"Smells Like Teen Spirit" and an
alternate mix by producer Butch Vig, a
1991 live radio performance of "Dumb"
two years before it appeared on the
studio album "In Utero" and such covers
as the Velvet Underground's "Here She
Comes Now" and the Wipers' "Return of
the Rat" and "D-7."

In addition to unreleased acoustic and
electric versions of "Rape Me" and an
undated run through "All Apologies,"
some of Nirvana's final studio
recordings show up on disc three. Six
tracks originate from a January 1993
session in Rio de Janeiro, including     "
"Gallons of Running Alcohol Flows
Through the Strip" and "The Other

Cobain's solo home demos of "Do Re Mi,"
"You Know You're Right" and "All
Apologies" close the set.

As for the DVD, it includes nine tracks
captured at a 1988 rehearsal at the home
of bassist Krist Novoselic's mother, 10
previously unreleased live performances
of such tracks as Jacques Brel and Rod
McKuen's "Seasons in the Sun" (recorded at
the Rio sessions) and "Pennyroyal Tea"
and the rare 1990 video for "In Bloom."

"With the Lights Out" was originally
intended for release in Christmas 2001,
to coincide with the 10-year anniversary "
of Nirvana's breakthrough album,
"Nevermind." But surviving members
Novoselic and Dave Grohl were thwarted
by lawsuits from Cobain's widow Courtney
Love, who objected to their planned use
of the previously "You Know You're
Right" in the set.

The dispute was eventually settled in
September 2002, with the parties agreeing
to earmark "You Know You're Right" for a
self-titled Nirvana compilation
released the following month.
