Love Buzz (História da música)

"Love Buzz" was the first single released by Nirvana in 1988 on Sub Pop Records, a cover of the band Shocking Blue, whose version released in 1967 didn't make the charts. This single contained two songs from the debut album Bleach. It was a limited release of only 1000 hand numbered 7"s. Several different counterfeit pressings are also in circulation. Many of these counterfeit copies are printed on coloured vinyl, whereas all the originals were on black vinyl. The single contains "Love Buzz", a cover version with slightly different lyrics than the Shocking Blue original and "Big Cheese" on the B-side. [1]

The Bleach album version of Love Buzz was mixed slightly differently and is missing a 10-second sound collage introduction put together by Kurt Cobain. "Love Buzz" was later released on the Blew (EP).

In 1989 in a review by British music magazine Melody Maker, the Love Buzz single is described as a "Limited edition of 1000; love songs for the psychotically disturbed".

In 1995 "Love Buzz" was used in the film Mad Love.
