from the album "MTV Unplugged In New York (Live Acoustic)"
MTV Unplugged in New York is the first live album by the American rock band Nirvana, released by DGC Records on November 1, 1994, nearly seven months following the suicide of Kurt Cobain. It was part of the cable television series MTV Unplugged and features a mostly acoustic performance. It was recorded at Sony Music Studios in Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan, on November 18, 1993.
The show was directed by Beth McCarthy and aired on the cable television network MTV on December 16, 1993. In a break with MTV Unplugged tradition, Nirvana used some electric amplification and effects, and played mainly lesser-known material and covers, with performances of songs by the Vaselines, David Bowie, Lead Belly and Meat Puppets. They were joined by the rhythm guitarist Pat Smear and the cellist Lori Goldston, alongside Meat Puppets members Cris and Curt Kirkwood for some songs.
MTV Unplugged was released after plans to release the performance as part of a live album, Verse Chorus Verse, were abandoned. It debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 and was certified 8x platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in 2020. It won the Best Alternative Music Performance at the 1996 Grammy Awards, Nirvana's only Grammy Award. It was released on DVD in 2007.
