Description:
November 18, 1993, a sold out Sony Music Studios in Hell's Kitchen, where cameras bared witness to one of the most soul-grabbing, emotion-filled, acoustic performances of the century. Kurt Cobain would captivate an audience with a whole new twist to his artistic style, leaving them moved and speechless, wondering how far Cobain could have stretched his talents.
Within this retrospective look at Nirvana Unplugged Live In New York, I attempt to revisit that night and describe it to both old & new Nirvana fans alike; Although, many who were lucky enough to be present find it difficult to elaborate on themselves. This is my feeble attempt.

“It might be nice to start playing acoustic guitars and be thought of as a singer and a songwriter, rather than a grunge rocker you know? Because then I might be able to take advantage of that when I'm older, and sit down on a chair and play acoustic guitar like Johnny Cash and it won't be a big joke.” We would have loved it, Kurt and did.

@krisfrederick5001 Год назад

I was honestly somewhat anxious to see this or even decide what to comment after the anticipation. After there is so much to be said about such a performance and moment, so I thought I would just let Kurt speak for himself. I can't imagine having to write the script for this, brilliantly done. You did not disappoint Charles.

@wvu05 Год назад

8:47 That's because a lot of people never knew or understood just how seriously Nirvana took rehearsals. Krist Novoselic later compared it to a full-time job, and reports around the _Nevermind_ sessions said that they rehearsed 8-10 hours a day. You're darn right they only needed one take!

@AvecPoesie Год назад

The way you articulate these musically historical narratives are so profoundly resonant, Charles. There is such meaningful simplicity in your eloquence. I have been turning to your channel during my darkest hours for months, both on RU-vid and Patreon. The hard work you have put forth as you endeavor to bring about this beautiful, poetic content is deeply appreciated. 🖤

The way he sighs before the last line of where did you sleep last night, is so powerful and heartbreaking. I only listened to unplugged for a few months in the 90s. Then I couldn't listen to nirvana for years. It was too sad. I was only able to play their music again ten years ago

I watched this for the first time when I was 9 years old. I loved it back then. I've watched Unplugged so many times in my life, but watching at 39...to have such musicianship, such heart, in their 20s to compose this timeless performance. Wow.

@dondamon4669 Год назад

All best music is do e by people in there twenties? Maybe you don't listen to music but you do the Beatles, Dylan , Stones, oasis ,Pink Floyd on and on. Being in there twenties is a bonus,it's when you are at your best. Maybe listen or learn about music instead of making annoying cliche comments!!!

This is amazing and definitely deserves so many more like already!! I was 14 when this unplugged first aired at 9 on MTV, and I was speeches after I watched it. O already had Bleach on Cassette, and they were my favorite band in high school. My friend bought me this on cassette for Christmas. I will never forget my friends calling me the day they discovered his body and left messages on my answering machine just checking to make sure I was okay. Great video, and I can't wait to see the second part.❤ Also, my all-time favorite band is Queen, which is hilarious but true.

@nancybsyb 8 месяцев назад

So glad you did this! Definitely a favorite, the band was so tight.. The arrangement on the songs were perfect! Adding the cellist was crucial for this particular performance. Everything was enchanting and beautiful. Kurt sang with such passion, you can feel his emotions! He was nervous and allowed himself to be so vulnerable. Respect for him always... RIP Kurt ~ you will always be inside of us...

The Manchester music photographer Kevin Cummins once said he'd photograph Joy Division and they'd be laughing and smiling and the one pic he'd use was the one of Ian Curtis looking away, looking moody or sitting on his own. He seemed to feel a tiny bit responsible for if not creating the dark moody image, progressing it for sure. The bit about Kurt's smile made me think of this. Love this video.
