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'., Runningtime: 00:00:00, A&R: Mark Kates, Art Direction, Design: Robert Fisher (4), Bass: Krist Novoselic, Cello: Lori Goldston, Drums, Vocals: Dave Grohl, Guitar: Curt Kirkwood, Guitar: Krist Novoselic, Guitar: Pat Smear, Guitar, Vocals: Kurt Cobain, Lacquer Cut By: SST (8), Management: Gold Mountain Entertainment, Mastered By: Stephen Marcussen, Photography By: Frank Micelotta, Photography By: Jennifer Youngblood, Producer: Nirvana, Producer: Scott Litt, Written-By: Kurt Cobain, Accordion: Krist Novoselic, Bass: Dave Grohl, Written-By: Eugene Kelly, Written-By: Frances McKee, Written-By: David Bowie, Bass, Backing Vocals [Back-Up Vocals]: Cris Kirkwood, Written-By: Curt Kirkwood, Bass, Backing Vocals [Back-Up Vocals]: Cris Kirkwood, Written-By: Curt Kirkwood, Bass: Cris Kirkwood, Written-By: Curt Kirkwood, Written-By: Huddie Ledbetter, Labelcode 4247271 (GEF 24727, GEF-24727), Recorded At Sony Music Studios, New York City, Mixed At Louie's Clubhouse, Mastered At Precision Mastering, Lacquer Cut At SST Brüggemann GmbH, Phonographic Copyright (p) Geffen Records, Inc., Copyright (c) Geffen Records, Inc., Distributed By BMG, Marketed By BMG Ariola, Published By EMI Virgin Songs, Inc., Published By The End Of Music, Published By EMI Blackwood Music Inc., Published By EMI Music Publishing Ltd., Published By Complete Music Ltd., Published By Tintoretto Music, Published By Screen Gems-EM
"Mtv Unplugged In New York" es un álbum en vivo icónico del grupo estadounidense Nirvana presentado en formato LP por el sello discográfico David Geffen Company. Grabado durante una actuación íntima para el célebre ciclo ?MTV Unplugged? en noviembre de 1993, este disco se ha convertido en uno de los registros más emblemáticos e influyentes del rock alternativo mundial gracias a sus versiones acústicas y emotivas tanto de éxitos propios como ?Come As You Are? o ?About A Girl?, así como sorprendentes interpretaciones ajenas como ?The Man Who Sold The World? de Bowie que muestran otra faceta artística del trío liderado por Kurt Cobain más allá del sonido grunge tradicionalmente asociado al grupo desde su debut con el revolucionario álbum ?Nevermind?. Fundada en Aberdeen (Washington) hacia finales de los años ochenta y pese a su corta trayectoria marcada por tragedias personales irreparables para sus integrantes originales ?especialmente tras la muerte prematura del carismático vocalista?Nirvana sigue siendo referencia indiscutible dentro y fuera del género alternativo contemporáneo gracias al impacto global alcanzado con himnos generacionales como ?Smells Like Teen Spirit?. Por su parte el fabricante responsable es la prestigiosa compañía discográfica estadounidense fundada por el empresario musical visionario homónimo: desde entonces ha impulsado carreras innovadoras apoyando artistas vanguardistas bajo una filosofía centrada siempre en promover creatividad genuina e independencia artística real dentro del sector musical internacional.
