Live! Tonight! Sold Out!! (1994) Singles (1995) From the Muddy Banks of the Wishkah (1996)

Singles is a box set released in Europe featuring the singles from the grunge band Nirvana's two biggest studio albums. Released in 1995, a year after Kurt Cobain's death, it features six CDs: four from Nevermind ("Smells Like Teen Spirit", "Come as You Are", "In Bloom" and "Lithium") and two from In Utero ("Heart-Shaped Box" and "All Apologies"). At least some versions of the set also included a track from MTV Unplugged In New York, namely "Where Did You Sleep Last Night".

It does not include the planned third In Utero single, "Pennyroyal Tea". This single was recalled by the record company after Kurt Cobain was found dead, however several hundred copies had already been sold and have become collectors items.
