They wanted to sell him led bellys guitar for 500,000 and the guitar that kurt uses in this video sold at auction for over 6 million!!
He exaggerated!
Led belly’s guitar was for $50K, not $500K.
@@michaelcroteau5919 Things have a way of getting more expensive when you know the person wanting to buy is a multimillionaire.
Even if you're not a big Nirvana fan, watch the entire Unplugged performance. If you're not a fan after that, you never will be. Amazing performance.
After all these years this video still gives me chills; that stare into the abyss he has at the close of the song is a window into Hell.
So.. I totally understand not everyone is a nirvana fan and so I can accept that they’ve never heard outside of smells like teen spirit, but how do you not know what Kurt cobain looks like?
Seriously tho
, idk, i totally hear u…but….I'm 47 years old & I can excuse it….when I was their age 30 years prior was 1966, & while I loved a LOT of 1960’s stuff 30 years ago, there were quite a few ppl where I didn’t know exactly what they looked like….granted, great photos of everyone werent so ubiquitous back in the 60’s, but, idk….in a lot of ways 30 years ago might as well be the Stone Age to ppl their age & even to me now, in some respects/aspects….music & culture has changed 180 trillion degrees since then….i totally hear u tho
It depends on the cultural bubble you grew up in….actually, I knew what many musicians/ppl from the 60s & even the 50s looked like, but back then many ppl my age i knew & know didn’t, that’s for sure
At least it’s a genuine reaction, that’s what these reaction channels are for. To see people discover “new” Artists/Songs they have never heard/seen before
Even in my 40’s , id guess every Nirvana song. Having said that, my thing was always Alice and soundgarden
One of the best live performances of any and ever. Really amazing. I love when he goes into the crowd at the end, and everyone falls dead silent. There’s no screaming, no demands for another song, no rushing the talent,etc. I just dig the utter respect.
It was only a few short months later that Kurt Cobain would be found dead. Those in attendance here have a pure gold nugget of musical history in their memoirs.
Another great MTV unplugged concert I enjoyed is , Black by Pearl Jam. It's amazing! The unplugged series is where the bands use acoustic instruments that's why the bass player is playing a cello- (I think.).
Song: Questioning his woman on her whereabouts.
This dude: I'm wondering what this song is about.
Me: Holy fuck.
fr😭
Great reaction! I reccomend listening to Love, hate, love by Alice in Chains (Live at the Moore). It's one of the all time greatest live preformances. Them and Nirvana were both part of the grunge scene that came out of Seattle in the 80's and its another amazing band with an incredible vocalist.
That whole unplugged cd is fantastic, catch you on the next one 🙏🦉❤️🐊👍
Kurt was offered Leadbellys guitar for $500,000 which he couldn’t afford apparently. Then a few years later the guitar he is playing at this show sold for over $8 million! How strange life can be!
He probably could have afforded it. But he thought $500,000 was a ridiculous price for a guitar.
Kurt in actually had enough to buy about 21 of those guitars in all. His networth was in the millions, and of course Courtney Love got most. Murderous witch!!!!!!!
92 reading festival is legendary concert
Nirvana's (along with Alice in Chains') Unplugged are two of my favorite performances of all time! Classics. Some of my other favorite Nirvana songs specifically: Come As You Are, Breed, Drain You, Something In The Way, All Apologies, Lithium, Stay Away and Dive ... just to name a few.
Pearl Jam's is also fantastic
Negative Creep is a good listen if you're upset or need pumped up.. for me anyway...
"A guy from Ledbelly's estate wants to sell me his guitar for $500,000..."
Fast forward 25 years: Kurt's guitar from this show sells for $6 million.
Kurt wrongly attributes the song to American black blues artist, Ledbelly, who recorded the song in the 1940s or 50s. But the song is much older than that and passed down through word of mouth. It was also called In The Pines. The venue is the television show, MTV Unplugged, where popular bands would show up and play with acoustic instead of electric guitars (even though the acoustics have electric pickups) and the drummers would either play softer or play some kind of percussion instead. Nirvana did mostly cover songs on this episode.
The drummer is Dave group lead singer of foo fighters
I've never heard that before...nobody had before or after. One of Kurt's greatest abilities was the release he had to his voice...it takes a special person to sing with everything in them even if it technically didn't sound the best.
Y'all forgot the reaction RAP - Rewind After Pause - rule. 👍🏽
Old Leadbelly song. Keep rolling with Nirvana (Polly, Pennyroyal Tea, All Apologies) and some Alice in Chains! Tip: rewind 5 seconds after pausing. 💚🤙
The chorus comes from the oak ridge boys song " in the pines "
Sorry about that Dock Walsh released it in 1926, oak ridge boys released there version in 1983
A few Nirvana songs...Come As You Are, Heart-Shaped Box, Lithium
Legend! Thank you for the suggestions, we’ll add these to the list
If I remember correctly this song goes back to the 1800's and has gone through changes through out the years, it's a really interesting story, but Kurt made it his own❤
More Nirvana: On A Plain, Drain You, Sliver, Negative Creep, All Apologies, Heart-Shaped Box, Breed, Lithium, Dumb, Dive, Oh Me, Polly...
Nirvana was originally a 3 piece, Pat, with just the socks on, swinging his feet, was added in mid to late 1993, & the cello player was added for this show….around this time she joined nirvana for a smattering of gigs because the dark cello sound fit nirvana so well…her name is Laurie Goldstein I believe…I know her first name is Laurie
U guys got it right, the "Unplugged" is meaning without all electric instruments. The bands Alice in Chains and Pearl Jam, were in my opinion 2 of the best Unplugged sessions ever. The Song "Black" by Pearl Jam is a must. Oh, and both these bands are from the Seattle Grunge era! U guys keep up the good work.
Oh yeah lol the drummer in this video went on to be the front man of the band The Foo Fighters. His name is Dave Grohl, one of the best musicians of our time!
Kurt died 5 months after this show. They ran it on TV after he died and it was like he was resurrected...very haunting, but this song is haunting and when you think back it was like he was singing about his death. The song is a really old Lead Belly blues song from the early 1900s, some say even maybe the late 1800s and was known as a murder ballad. They say this was about an African American man and woman who lived in the Appalachian mountains and was called "In The Pines". It starts off with the accusation: “My girl, my girl, don’t lie to me, tell me where did you sleep last night?” And the answer is dire: “In the pines, in the pines, where the sun don't ever shine and I shiver the whole night through.” Then they talk about her husband's head being found, but his body never was. My guess is they were probably running from the KKK. Many, many artists over the generations covered it and tweaked it to their liking. Some talked about the murder and some left it out and just talked about the long train and the tall and dark pines. You could tell this dark, sad and haunting song meant a lot, which was telling. The music is what Cobain loved the most...just playing music and hated the lights and fame of it all and it finally took him down. On April 5, 1994 he shot himself. In April, it will be 30 yrs since. He was part of the "27 club". Too many young musicians died when they were 27...Brian Jones, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, and Amy Winehouse just to name a few. Enjoyed your reaction...Just a bit of advice, pausing it just a little too much and when you do pause, hit the back arrow so it will start backup a couple of seconds before you paused it. That way you don't miss anything. You missed the climax going into the ending.
Kurt jokes about how much they wanted for Leadbelly's guitar, while playing a guitar that was auctioned for $6 million recently
Great reaction. Nirvana is a 3 man band. The extra guitar players and cellist was just for the Unplugged session.
I agree with April below, Pearl Jam "Black" on MTV Unplugged was legendary. I'd love to see you guys react to it.
Look up Lead Belly's version....its a very emotional song
WDYSLN written by Lead Belly in 1870.
Heard slave owner is requesting from his "girl" where she slept last night. Head in steering wheel, body unfound is supposedly slave owner telling husband of said "girl" to watch what he says.
The original actually comes from the oak ridge boys song " in the pines "
Some Nirvana songs I’d recommend are:
-Come as you are
-Lithium
-Lounge Act
-Serve the Servants
-Heart Shaped Box
-All apologies
There are plenty of great other tracks that they performed on this MTV unplugged show as well that I’d recommend reacting to. Unfortunately, only about 5 months after unplugged, Kurt Cobain, the lead singer passed away. Not sure if you guys were aware based on the reaction. The drummer, Dave Grohl later became the lead singer of the band the Foo Fighters, which he is still the lead singer of to this day.
Please, can you play the damn video without stopping it every 3 seconds. Thank you! Jesus!😂😂
It sounds country since it`s at least 100 years old, Leadbelly likely did not write it, just the first to record it.
Leadbelly - Where Did you Sleep Last Night
ua-cam.com/video/PsfcUZBMSSg/v-deo.html
It’s cover of blues song by Leadbelly
Id definitely be down for some more nirvana reactions. And some deftones!
91 Paradiso also
Nirvana- Come as you are
it will be interesting your reaction to more nirvana music...
Idk if anyone has pointed this out yet. But the Drummer is still super famous and relevant to this day. He is David Grohl from the Foo Fighters.
This is a very old song. They are covering the Leadbelly version. He was one of the originators (and one of the greatest) Blues artists. His version (sometimes called “Black Girl” or “In the Pines” or “My girl”) was recorded in the 1920’s. The song is older than that, though. It was an old coal mining song from the 1870’s. So, a lot of people have covered it, and there have been a few different versions.
500,000 for a guitar owned by Leadbelly ok. In 2020 the guitar Kurt is playing in this video sold for $6,000,000 setting the record for higest price ever paid for a guitar at auction. A year or so before that the cardigan he's wearing sold for $330,000
Yall should do “in bloom” its one of their best songs ngl, but for a sick performance yall should do “aneurysm” (live at the paramount)
Definitely check out Come As You Are by them, another huge hit and one of the greatest songs ever
This song originally was from the 20s or 30s I think
It’s an old American southern, country-blues song, popularized by leadbelly in the 1930s or 40s but it goes way further back to at least the 1800s….lyrics could be very, very dark back then, in the swampy south, among the tall pine trees.
I recommend you another Seattle bands like Alice in chains or Soundgarden i think you would like Chris Cornell voice i think his solo stuff are great too When I'm down or sunshower are great
FYI: balking at the idea of a guitar price: (copy/pasted:) "Kurt Cobain's MTV Unplugged guitar sold for a massive $6,010,000 (£4,960,000) at auction in June 2020 and became the World's Most Expensive Guitar in the process"
The ultimate irony is that the guitar Kurt is holding in this vid, sold for £15M!
Huddle Ledbetter, the man who wrote the song, was a black man from the south
Huddie *
Good reaction,but too much breaks for talking
That sigh...
I would recommend Lithium!!!!!!
Great reaction guys You! You should react to Nirvana (Lithium) at the live and loud performance. And also be keen to see you react to Stan Walker Ultra light beam cover. Or his new song called (I Am) ✌🏾
All Apologies from the same show is great as well.
Please react to Brown Sugar by The Rolling Stones. Respect 💯 You both a breath of fresh air.
My theory on this song has always been the girl he is singing to is dead and he's in that stage of grief where he's in shock and denial. Coffins used to be made of pine and called Pineboxes. So right or wrong my basic theory is she's in "the pines", where the sun don't ever shine and it's cold. Which makes me think she's dead and he feels like she shouldn't be gone and has to remind himself she is. Idk maybe I'm stretching but that was always my impression of the songs lyrics.
Lol no
'In the pines' was an old metaphor. If someone was 'in the pines' it meant they lost their way. The sun doesn't shine because the tree canopy is so thick and it represents being lost. Being in a dark place mentally. Its a call and answer - where did you sleep last night? answer: I was in a dark place. When he asked where will you go? she answers: I'm on the run. I'm going to be lost' . Could be she witnessed the murder of her husband and is on the run.
Oh yes I totally agree with everyone recommending Alice in Chains unplugged along with Pearl Jam. What wonderful heartfelt music, just love love love it. Also thanx for this reaction aswell
If you want to see a performer get in touch with the crowd ....Beth Hart - Am I The One Live At Paradiso is a good one to see.
Great reaction, liked & subbed: D ….however, it will NEVER cease to be hilarious to me how 99 out of 100 reactors pause right before the nearly psychotically screamed last verse & say “yeah, I like how mellow this is….their other songs have loud guitars & screaming” 🤣😂🤣…. Im not making fun of you guys, almost every reactor does it….anyway, great reaction:)
U should react to mtv unplugged pearl jam doing their song black. U will like it
Did you recognise the drummer? 🙏🦉❤️🐊👍
Guitar later sold for 6 m
Ironically, now. Kurt Cobain’s guitar is worth way more than Lead Belly’s. His daughter lost the guitar in a divorce settlement
Except for his incendiary musical genius & the medical danger/chaos of his narcotics abuse, Kurt really was the most normal, down to earth, & boring dude on the planet, & in the most charming of ways too.
Nothing wrong with the unplugged session, but that is hardly what Nirvana was about
Not "country vibes." The words you're looking for are blues and folk.
Thank you for the correction!
Reaction as cold as a dog's nose. Thumb down. Interrupt less, enjoy more. Reaction to the end..
Sorry bro but this is how we do it on the channel, to ensure our content aligns with fair use it’s important that we pause and have discussions and commentary throughout. If you want to watch the full video uninterrupted you should watch the original ;)
Still waiting on “I got this” by nba youngboy
Lool this is my mums music if you want a real story drop Kaylas story potter paper 👀
I'm out I'm sorry but y'all keep pausing every 5 seconds very annoying later 👎👎🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
