Dave Grohl discusses Nirvana greatest hits and rarities box set

Dave Grohl discusses the Nirvana greatest hits album and forthcoming rarities box set, which went on sale as the tracklisting first listed by Amazon proved correct.

Dave Grohl has been talking about the release of the Nirvana Greatest hits album and the forthcoming rarities collection. He told US music website CDNow: "To me, it's important that people hear the music. A song like 'You Know You're Right,' or some of the songs that will be on the box set, I think people should hear them, because it gives some kind of perspective. One of the exciting things about the box set when it finally comes out will be giving people insight on the growth of the band. So, as much trouble and as many hurdles and obstacles as we had to go through to get this stuff out, I think it's worth it. Just because there's people out there who really regard Nirvana as something important. And I'd hate to deny anyone of that."

Meanwhile, as the Greatest Hits album hit the shops yesterday it turned out the tracklisting published by Amazon a few weeks back was right. After the listing went live Courtney Love's manager Jim Barber told reporters they'd got it wrong, and the final track listing would not be made public until the album was released. It seems he was winding reporters up in a bid to keep tension going up until the album's release yesterday.
