Description
NIRVANA BLEACH – SUPER SUPER RARE ICEBERG – GLACIAL WHITE colored vinyl edition.
This vinyl record was sealed and opened to find out what copy it was. It has never had a needle touch it. This album was found in a stoage unit that was from a Sub Pop employee.
The most common story behind this albumis: This item was going to be the second pressing,but the vinyl color did not satisfy Sub Pop. They’d hoped for marbled white vinyl, but when they received a batch from the manufacturer, the vinyl had a light green tint (sometimes called "glacial white or Iceberg).” These LPs were NEVER RELEASED, but some have trickled into circulation. How many exist is unknown, but the most common number stated as pressed is less than 200. Who knows, but the fact Sub Pop never released this edition and the only people who had access to it were at Sub Pop or closely associated with Sub Pop make this is as likely a story as anything else. You won’t find a legitimate SubPop Nirvana record as rare as this item. If you’re a Nirvana collector, this is a “Holy Grail” item. the last one that came up for auction in 2020 and sold for $3500.
