  • Nirvana - Big Long Now - LIVE! (audio only)
    Available for the first time, here's the first every found recording of Nirvana performing "Big Long Now" live. Previous to this, there were only two other known recordings of this song... The studio version that is featured on the "Incesticide" LP and a 1988 rehearsal video that is featured on the "With The Lights Out" box set DVD. Unfortunately this recording cuts out after only a minute and a half.
    Please support this artist. Buy their records and merchandise. If band members are still playing shows, go see them live!

      They seem like they hated that song.
      "Kurt asked Rob Kader, an avid Nirvana fan who was along for the ride, to shout out the songs he wanted the band to play, which the band then played. One exception was "Big Long Now," which Rob requested at Jason's urging, but the band would not play. Krist replied to the request with, "We don't play that one anymore.""

      @@davidchez513 as for live performances, you're probably right. I don't think they hated the song though, because then they probably wouldn't have put it on inceticide later on.
      i love the song but i can understand that they wouldn´t play this song live. it has a slightly sluggish, slowing down vibe and pulls down an aggressive set. only my speculation ;)

    I like the Incesticide album a lot and this song along with Aneurysm are two of his best songs on it! It’s the last track on the album and it’s brilliant! So trippy, trancelike and moody!
    Jack Endino actually rescued this song! They forgot about it and told them they had an unreleased song.
    Thanks Jack Endino!
    I knew when I heard those two songs that he was a Genius! Who writes songs like this? Only Kurt Cobain, that’s who!
    Thanks Kurt!

      The AMT (video) while could be possible that exists, I doubt it would be completed. So best hope is that this is part of the second AUD that may be completed.
