Nirvana performed on MTV’s “Unplugged” at the height of the shows success and at the peak of their career. They had just received international attention due to the success of their album “Nevermind.” “Nirvana Unplugged In New York” is available on DVD for the very first time. The DVD includes the full performance from the show complete with extras. Extra’s included on the single disc include the MTV News special “Bare Witness” which includes interviews from the band and fans who attended the special. Also included with the extra’s are rehearsals.

Nirvana fans may remember seeing clips of the Unplugged performance over the years. MTV aired the “All Apologies” performance for years after the special aired. Songs performed during the Unplugged performance include “Come As You Are,” “The Man Who Sold The World,” and “Polly.” At the time of the performance, it was considered surprising that Nirvana didn’t perform an unplugged version of their biggest hit “Smells Like Teen Spirit.”

“Nirvana Unplugged In New York” has been long awaited on DVD. Nirvana fans will love to add this to their collection. The running time for the release is 102 minutes.
