U is for Unplugged in New York, Nirvana - a podcast by Lily R and Hannah C

Picture the scene: 

NYC, November 18, 1993. 

Black candles, stargazer lillies, crystal chandeliers. 

Grunge green mohair. Navy polo neck. 

A cello. An accordian. A concealed amp. 

The Brothers Meat. 

The scent of teen spirit wafted away in favour of lesser known material, and covers of Bowie, Leadbelly and The Vaselines. 

This week U is for possibly the best live album in the world ever... Nirvana's MTV Unplugged in New York.
