Nice Discography


Even if they only released 3 albums while they lasted, there are some more out there...

This list of releases is to many people just a list of "The Best of" or "Greatest Hits"records.
- And to others it means that such an extensive list as this, only proves that The Nice represents one of the most important musical experiences of our time.
Anyway, I think it's fun reading and exploring. Enjoy!
