Nirvana - Sappy (In A Nevermind Kind of Way)

  • Here's another part of the experiment.
    An attempt to make "Sappy" sound like as if it was released on "Nevermind".
    "In Utero" is my favorite album by Nirvana, music- and sound-wise. I've always been fond of the rough and honest nature of that album. An opinion that wasn't really shared by mainstream music listeners and even their own label and management.
    There was always this thought in my head, what if the tracks on "In Utero" were mixed in the same way as on "Nevermind", clean-cut, slick and slighty over-produced.
    Being an audio engineer for post production myself, I attempted to recreate the sound of each individual track, with an additional guitar track taken from the guide guitar track and vocal bits reused to create true double-tracking.
    Well, technically "Sappy" is not really included on "In Utero", it originates from the same session though.
    Here's the result, tell me what you think, I appreciate any feedback!
    Unfortunately, I wasn't able to upload the entire remix due to UA-cam's/UMG's policies.
    I'm not intending to break copyright laws, this is merely an experiment.

    Nirvana played this at the very 1st show I'd ever seen them, at Bogart's, Long Beach, in early '90. Couldn't get the song out of my head for DAYS ... and it wasn't on BLEACH, so I had no idea what it was called. In those pre-internet days, it took real investigating to find this stuff out!

      @@iamshaggy3587 he probably didn't until 1993. It is possible though because Kurt tried to record it with Sub Pop in January 1990 but it didn't turn out as good as he wanted. And since Nirvana bootlegs were everywhere, maybe some people in Seattle knew it was called "Sappy" but the bottom line is Cobain was such a great songwriter that he could captivate people like us by playing a song one time, and then just leaving without telling anyone the title lol

    Love this, it still baffles me to this day how this never made it onto Nevermind or In Utero, but Kurt apparently thought it ‘wasn’t finished’. Guy was the master of sloppy perfectionism. He threw out perfectly good songs, some of which are better than a couple that are on In Utero.

      @@mokat He never used several songs that never made it onto albums or anything officially released. A few that were unused or rare are on Incesticide but the ones that come to mind are Sappy, Blandest, In His Hands (which might have also been called Token Eastern Song and been on some Japanese singles, not sure), Return of the Rat, Junkyard and Talk to Me. Not saying all of those belonged on In Utero but they were great. I personally think Territorial Pissings on Nevermind could have been swapped out for a song they already had like Sappy, and lose either Milk It or Tourette’s from In Utero. As it is, I don’t think Tourette’s is better than a lot of stuff Kurt had already decided not to use.

      That's "Smart Sessions." I like this fan version better than it, too. It's a fusion of Nevermind and In Utero, whereas Smart Sessions is just too mellow and un-energetic.
      Sappy (In Utero) and this fan-mix just remind me of Live Nirvana, which is great.
