An Oral History Of Nirvana Unplugged

It's been 25 years since Nirvana's Unplugged and The Ringer took on the task of documenting a complete oral history of the event. The piece covers everything from pitching the band to even be on the show, the practice sessions beforehand, the details of how the set was dressed and the aura around Kurt Cobain's presence. It invokes a bit of a tragic feeling to read about how delicate he was treated and how scared people were to approach him; despite every anecdote resulting in him being warm and somewhat affable. Makes sense that he felt a bit isolated.

But it's not a depressing read; it's a captivating one. I suggest carving out some time to enjoy it all in one sitting.
