The Eternal Echo: Nirvana’s "Unplugged" on the Internet Archive

On November 18, 1993, Nirvana took the stage at Sony Music Studios in New York City. Stripped of distortion and fury, they delivered a performance so raw, so hauntingly beautiful, that it transcended the "rock band goes acoustic" trope. Eight months later, Kurt Cobain was gone, and that performance became his epitaph.
