10/7/2023 0 Comments Nirvana unplugged full show uncutThis is a great concert and I would have been happy with just a release of the MTV version alone, but the unedited version is a delight to watch and the DVD cannot be recommended highly enough. Watching the unedited footage almost puts you in the position of an audience member as you`re privy to all of the banter between band members, the negotiations of which order to play the songs and even an impromptu decision that lead to Kurt Cobain playing `Pennyroyal Tea` as a solo. I can`t remember the last time I saw the MTV version of Nirvana: Unplugged in New York and I`ve lost count of the number of times that I`ve listened to the CD. of pearl jam unplugged (on dvd or cd) it appears to play uncut, complete and in the correct order.
