It debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 and was certified eight-times multiplatinum by the RIAA in 2020. It was the first Nirvana release after the suicide of singer Kurt Cobain seven months prior. MTV Unplugged was released after plans to release the performance as part of a live double-album compilation titled Verse Chorus Verse, were abandoned.

They were joined by rhythm guitarist Pat Smear and cellist Lori Goldston, plus members of Meat Puppets for some songs. Unlike prior MTV Unplugged performances, which were entirely acoustic, Nirvana used electric amplification and guitar effects during the set. In a break with MTV Unplugged tradition, Nirvana played mainly lesser-known material and covers of songs by the Vaselines, David Bowie, Lead Belly and Meat Puppets. The show was directed by Beth McCarthy and aired on the cable television network MTV on December 16, 1993.

It features an acoustic performance recorded at Sony Music Studios in New York City on November 18, 1993, for the television series MTV Unplugged. In other words, I don't think you can buy a US copy that's not analog-sourced.MTV Unplugged in New York is a live album by American rock band Nirvana, released on November 1, 1994, by DGC Records. In 2009 it was mastered again from analog at Sterling. It sounds nearly as big and good as the original (which is admittedly rough). I don't know the source, but I'd bet on analog. In 2002 it was remastered for vinyl by John Golden (who had worked a k-disc). And Geffen and others pressed many versions worldwide, who knows the source. There was also an Aussie release that was probably from an analog dub. Presumably, a 1:1 analog copy was sent to Tupelo in the UK, who did release the album on both vinyl and CD in 1989. These plates were used for the white vinyl first pressing, the black vinyl second, and the colored vinyl 1992 editions (which were pressed at Erika). Sub Pop hadn't even released a CD when Bleach came out, so almost certainly the analog mixes went straight from Reciprocal Audio to K-disc where it was cut by Carol Hibbs, then to Greg Lee Processing where it was plated. For the Blu-ray Pure Audio edition these same two tracks remain as 44.1kHz 16-bit files."ĩ6kHz 24-bit Mastered by Bob Ludwig at Gateway Mastering Studios Previously unreleasedĩ6kHz 24-bit Mastered by George Marino at Sterling Sound Licensed courtesy of Sub Pop Recordsĩ6kHz 24-bit Mastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering Licensed courtesy of Sub Pop Recordsĩ6kHz 24-bit Mastered by Bob Ludwig at Gateway Mastering Studios Originally appeared on Nevermindĩ6kHz 24-bit Mastered by Steve Rooke at Abbey Road Mastering Studios Original versions appeared on In Uteroĩ6kHz 24-bit Mastered by Steve Rooke at Abbey Road Mastering Studios Originally appeared on In UteroĤ4.1kHz 16-bit Mastered by Bob Ludwig at Gateway Mastering Studios Originally appeared on MTV Unplugged in New York Courtesy of MTV Networks For the lacquer cutting process only, the last two 44.1kHz 16-bit sources "All Apologies" and "The Man Who Sold The World" were up res'd to 96kHz 24-bit so all audio was a consistent resolution to cut from. Final assembly and lacquers were cut by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering. "We used highest resolution digital files as noted below for each song. Received an email today with mastering details from UMe, which we very much appreciate: The real lesson here is: he/she who hesitates loses. Certainly better than the original Sub Pop vinyl more than likely cut from a CD. So do you need this compilation? Well if you didn't buy Never Mind when Mobile Fidelity issued it some years back, or you missed the spectacular, rocking, ORG Music reissues from a few years ago, cut from analog tape and pressed at RTI and now out of print, this is probably a good way to go. Nirvana only produced a few albums before Kurt Cobain's passing. No doubt in my mind that the LPs were mastered from the high resolution files. The compilation will also be issues as a Blu-Ray Pure Audio at 96/24 plus three DTS-HD Master Audio and Dolby TrueHD.

Buy the 150g set and you get 320kbps MP4 audio. If you buy the 200g records you get a 96k/24 bit download. This one is a gatefold, but more significantly it's at 45rpm and pressed on 200g vinyl as well as a less deluxe set on 150g vinyl. The previous vinyl set was in a single sleeve jacket. The 14 tracks include all of your favorites (that you perhaps already own). First released in 2002 on CD and double LP, this collection of familiar Nirvana tunes plus the then previously unreleased "You Know You're Right" is again being reissued with some new production twists.
