The Best Live Albums Of All Time, Ranked
Nirvana, ‘MTV Unplugged in New York’
MTV Unplugged in New York is a live album by the beloved band Nirvana. There is no denying that Nirvana’s acoustic performances resonated with fans. But, this MTV Unplugged set was different from most. Instead of performing an entirely acoustic show, Nirvana used electric amplification and guitar effects to spice things up.
Additionally, the band played lesser-known material and more cover songs than many expected. The live album was recorded in November of 1993 and aired on television on December 16, 1993. The live album was released about a year later on November 1, 1994.
