LEGENDARY NIRVANA "MTV UNPLUGGED" PERFORMANCE SET FOR FIRST EVER DVD RELEASE ON NOVEMBER 20
------
Band's Never Before Released Acoustic Performance Comes To Home Video With Unaired Footage And Interviews
------
LOS
ANGELES, October 23, 2007 -- Nearly 14 years to the day of the filming
of Nirvana's landmark "MTV Unplugged" performance, that raw, revealing
and emotionally gripping acoustic concert previously seen only on
television will be available for the first time on DVD. Unplugged In
New York (Geffen/MTV Networks/UMe) will be released on November 20,
2007 and will feature the complete, unedited 66-minute concert
including "Something In The Way" and "Oh Me" not aired during the
original 44-minute broadcast. Unplugged In New York also includes five
previously unreleased rehearsal performances and MTV News interviews
with the band and audience members.
Filmed November 18, 1993 at Sony
Music Studios, the show first aired on MTV on December 14, 1993; just
four months before the untimely passing of Kurt Cobain. Unplugged In
New York DVD is now presented in both Dolby Stereo and 5.1 Surround
Sound and includes both the shorter original broadcast version, and
Nirvana's entire unedited performance. When released on CD in November
1994, MTV Unplugged In New York debuted #1, won the Grammy for Best
Alternative Music Album in 1996 and was quickly certified five times
platinum.
Favoring a selection of carefully chosen tracks over
the band's hits, Cobain, bassist Krist Novoselic and drummer Dave Grohl
perform acoustic versions of Nirvana's "About A Girl," "Come As You
Are," "Pennyroyal Tea," "Dumb," "Polly," "On A Plain," "Something In
The Way" and "All Apologies." Six other songs are covers that mined
Nirvana's musical diversity and depth, from David Bowie's "The Man Who
Sold The World" and The Vaselines' version of "Jesus Doesn't Want Me
For A Sunbeam" to the trad folk "Where Did You Sleep Last Night?"
associated with Leadbelly and the Meat Puppets' "Plateau," "Oh, Me" and
"Lake Of Fire." Meat Puppets singer-guitarist Curt Kirkwood and bassist
brother Cris Kirkwood perform with Nirvana on those tracks. Also seen
and heard throughout are Nirvana's touring guitarist Pat Smear, an
original Germs member and the original and now recurrent guitarist of
The Foo Fighters.
The DVD adds the MTV News "Bare Witness" feature
of interviews with the band, the MTV production staff, and fans in the
audience, plus the rehearsal footage for "Come As You Are," "Polly,"
"Plateau," "Pennyroyal Tea" and "The Man Who Sold The World."
