“MTV Unplugged” premiered rather quietly in the fall of 1989 as an acoustic showcase, but what really put it on the map was on November 1st, 1994. Recorded at the Sony Music Studios in Hell’s Kitchen, Manhattan, Nirvana is joined by the Germs’ Pat Smear, cellist Lori Goldston, and the Meat Puppets’ Curt Kirkwood. This was really Kurt Cobain’s show, and, sadly, his farewell.
Relive one of the most iconic and most memorable performances decorated with stargazer lilies, black candles, and a crystal chandelier.
53 minutes and 50 seconds. In its entirety. In their own words. Kurt, Dave, Krist, You.
