Vinyl LP pressing of this live release from the Grunge heroes. Recorded in November 1993, less than six months before singer Kurt Cobain killed himself, Nirvana s MTV Unplugged is a watershed document that presents a band at the peak of it s powers. Unlike any other unplugged affair, the diverse album is not a simple stripped-down regurgitation of greatest hits or a cash-it-in set of nostalgic favorites. Rather, the live effort is among the most emotionally naked spectacles ever released an album so starkly intense and profoundly personal, it s impossible not to get chills down the spine. The set list is as surprising as the stylistic makeover. Save for renditions of All Apologies and Come As You Are , the adventurous material includes brooding covers of the Meat Puppets Lake of Fire , Plateau , and Oh Me as well as harrowing versions of David Bowie s The Man Who Sold the World , and the Vaselines Jesus Don t Want Me for a Sunbeam .
