    Smells Like Teen Spirit 7 inch by Woody Sullender (Dead CEO) $6.00 – This clear 7″ lathe-cut record, pressed as part of a limited edition series of only 100, was cut one at a time by Peter King in New Zealand. It contains “erased” versions of two Nirvana songs, “Smells Like Teen Spirit” and “Polly.” Both songs were run through a series of band-pass filters, which removes most of the frequency spectrum from an audio recording. “Polly” was erased based on the principle melody of the classic murder ballad.
