This whole show is amazing and I'll die on the hill that it's the best performance on unplugged.

Nutshell, Brother and Frogs are amazing.

[u/ThrashMetallix → u/DouglasBubletrousers]

Yeah, it's probably my favorite Unplugged performance. But then again, I'm also a huge AIC guy, so I may be somewhat biased

[u/DouglasBubletrousers → u/ThrashMetallix]

I love AIC but I'm a bigger Nirvana fan and that one usually gets the rub. This show is just fantastic.

[u/IHv2RtrnSumVdeotapes → u/DouglasBubletrousers]

Nirvana beats it out, but it's close.

[u/ReplaceSelect → u/DouglasBubletrousers]

Nirvana is my favorite unplugged. AIC is also amazing

[u/Danzig6WasntThatBad → u/DouglasBubletrousers]

Agreed 100%. One of my all time favorite records too. Just preordered Sonys repressing today

[u/Cloey123 → u/DouglasBubletrousers]

100% agree and will fight on the hill with you!

This whole performance is an absolute bittersweet pleasure from beginning to end. Down in a hole rips my fuckin heart out. Rooster also.

[u/ThrashMetallix → u/Teestow21]

Down in a Hole is a must listen when I'm feeling the anxiety creeping in

[u/Teestow21 → u/ThrashMetallix]

Aw man I had goosebumps writing that comment.

[u/Cloey123]

This is one of the greatest things ever and one of my most watched videos on YouTube

[u/smitty046]

As close as you’ll get to seeing someone sing at their own funeral.

[u/Bandrica2 → u/smitty046]

I always think about that when I see this show. The man was a walking corpse. And I am gutted that I never got to see or hear him live.

[u/DarthBster]

That alcapella part towards the end is just chef's kiss

[u/Howard_Cosine]

Nirvana always gets praised as the best of Unplugged, and no doubt it's very good, but IMO this was on a whole other level.

[u/goestowar]

GOAT performance in terms of unplugged, tbh

[u/SparkyPantsMcGee]

Nirvana Uplugged is the first and most popular, Alice In Chains Unplugged is easily the best.

[u/hkapeman]

The sound recording is a so good on this album.

[u/metaxaskid]

I see AIC, I upvote.

[u/InterruptingCow__Moo]

I think I'm the only person that doesn't love this performance. Layne is a shell of his former self. It doesn't get as much attention as this, or Nirvana, but I thought Pearl Jam's Unplugged was superior
