although constantly coupled with nirvana and foo fighters collections, late! should be considered its own separate project. this would become complicated, taking into account that both bands would go on to release new versions of songs from the "pocketwatch" album. "color pictures of a marigold" was re-recorded with krist novoselic on bass in 1993 and released as a b-side of nirvana's "heart-shaped box" single, simply titled "marigold". this version would also appear on the 2004 "with the lights out" box set. another version of the song appeared on the foo fighters live album, "skin and bones". "winnebago" was re-recorded during the sessions for the first foo fighters album in 1994. despite not making the album, it appeared as a b-side on the foo fighters first release, the "exhausted" vinyl single, and later on the australian bonus disc to " foo fighters" and as a b-side to the singles "this is a call" and "big me". a new version of "friend of a friend" was first released on a free nme covermount cassette, then the acoustic side of the foo fighters' 2005 double album "in your honor" and later the following year on "skin and bones".
