Nirvana MTV Unplugged In New York

MTV Unplugged In New York is one of the most intimate and powerful live albums ever recorded. Originally released in 1994, the performance captured Nirvana just months before Kurt Cobain’s death, presenting the band in a stripped-back, hauntingly vulnerable setting that defied expectations and reshaped their legacy.

Recorded for MTV’s Unplugged series in November 1993, the setlist moves beyond the band’s biggest hits to include deep cuts and unexpected covers, delivered with raw emotion and restraint. Frequently cited as one of the greatest live albums of all time — including being named among Rolling Stone’s top live records — Unplugged In New York remains a defining moment in 1990s music history.

This 25th Anniversary Vinyl 2LP edition expands the original release to include five rehearsal performances, previously available only on DVD, offering deeper insight into the session and the band’s creative process. Housed in a deluxe gatefold sleeve with anniversary silver foil detailing on the front and back covers, this edition presents the album in a fittingly elevated format.

A deeply moving document of Nirvana at their most exposed, MTV Unplugged In New York is an essential release for fans and collectors alike.
