I swear, watching Nirvana performances feel so cinematic, the song has such a dark undertone to the realism of fame, he sounds so dead but it makes it that much more understandable. Thank you Fang for this song.
This particular performance was shot on film at 24 fps, which for the better part of history has been a standard for cinema! That would make sense for sure!
Cobain was so awesome for covering songs from lesser-known acts that inspired him. He truly made the songs his, too. Their version of D-7 is the one of the most electrifying performances I've ever seen...
What opening riff ? yOu mean the rigff of the entire song save for some chord progression here or there, probably chorus , fuck yeah ... it´s the H Nicholas , it´s the H vibe !
I like his iconic liver and his iconic shoelaces and his iconic guitar pick and his iconic earlobe and his iconic microphone and his iconic icon and his iconic teeth.
This is what I loved about Nirvana. Playing cover songs from bands that they are suggesting we go check out. As Kurt once said, "theres a thousand bands better then us"
This guy had that spark and he spoke to my generation. I was there in 1992 right there with the tapes and cds and now 30ish years later still on it. Man.
I missed this gig, didn’t get to reading until 94’ My pals who saw this gig say to this day it was the best gig they witnessed, right time, right band, right place
I purchased a boxed set in 1994 that had this concert on it. I've been asked multiple times through the years if I wanted to sell it. Glad I kept it, as it put the official boxed set to shame.
Yeah, it sounded OK too, I assumed for years (basically up until now) that his singing intro for Territorial Pissings accurately represented his singing skills, but apparently I was wrong.
I think Krist actually can sing but he just liked to goof off a lot during the Nirvana days. He can play guitar and accordion pretty well too as demonstrated in the Unplugged show.
Amazingly great band. As for the technique, I must say as someone who plays guitar and sings himself, I find Kurt one of the hardest rock stars to keep up with. He was a magician on guitar and vocals, and as a song writer, he was a true genius.
Dude im pretty experienced and this song for some reason is just about impossible for me to sing and play (the verse atleast) the timing is weird......Kurt makes it look effortless of course
@@mattamongtheashes1206 Yeah, I was playing it with my band, I mean I was playing it okay, but wasnt perfectly on time, but still thats kind of the point
@@mattamongtheashes1206 Singing over the riffs for Come as you are, All apologies, and the chorus of Blew are damn near impossible. I don´t know how he did it.
@Matt Among the ashes when u do something over and over again it comes like second nature. He was a perfectionist but he just makes everything look easy. 🐐
Reading 92 is my fav show. Sound desk did a great job, mix is perfect. The whole band seem totally into it Kurt jumping around a stage screaming and making an absolute racket with his guitar, i think thats all he ever wanted to do, he seemed like he was having so much fun. What a band. RIP Kurt. The lyrics describe Kurts life but he never ever lost his humanity
I've seen Mudhoney twice: The last time they played this song, WOW what a riff, what a song! Nirvana's version is great too, the perfect tone of voice for those lyrics!
They all had fun! Look at Dave smiling behind the drums! It was that magical time before things started to turn to shit. They also weren't on a tour, they weren't tired as hell.
Things had definitely started to turn to shit, but they weren't all the way there yet and the band were proving their true power and impact by the way they played this whole devastating performance .. greatest show they ever played in my opinion :) NIRVANA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
krist has no vocals he doesnt know hes doin when he opens his mouth lol. Nirvana is my all time favorite band but krist is no where on my list of good musicians.
This is so rad - Fang will always be very proud of this. The 3 of them on stage are in the zone, like they were just playing for themselves; Krist is smiling throughout the song. Nirvana forever
I just messaged the singer here is what Sammy Town the singer said... "Chris Wilson wrote the music and Tom wrote most of the lyrics. I reworded some of it when I joined the band"
This song has the look, feel and momentum of a big, heavy, stinking freight train pounding through the night. Grunge at it's filthy best. What a sound!
Simple song but such great sound and style. You can get into the groove of the any time. I love it. Talent that comes once in a lifetime. We miss you Kurt. Keep rocking the heavens up above.
@@perryeuan2748 I do love the paramount show but the setlist at reading absolutely demolishes paramounts. If Kurt put in as much energy into this show as he did at the paramount it would be THE perfect nirvana live show.
They're nearly off the rails in this performance, (Krist's chaoticly angelic backing vocals, Kurt's general being and state during this show, and Dave's brutality -even for him, on the drums) But they keep it together somehow and turn it into one of the wildest and most amazing performances of all time.
I was surprised nobody noticed he was on backing vocals, when I was listening on spotify I figured it was probably grohl. I thought Krist only sung for an intro of Territorial Pissings
@@NotAnAstronaut2k This version of this legendary concert does not have it all such as the end with Cobain playing the American anthem with a destroyed guitar. Anyway, have seen many many bands over the decades. This was the best encore ever imo!
+SkyTeX MC Well thanks for stating the obvious about stick rolling being a skill. But he does drop his drum stick. You can even hear a change in the drumming while he picks up the drum stick.
@trwerojo His name was Tony Hodgkinson and he was the drummer for a band called Bivouac. In a really cool move, Dave can be seen wearing a Bivouac t-shirt during the first bunch of songs in this (Reading '92) concert.
Old man here, they were playing 20 min away, and b/c of all the radio play I was like, nah. I'll save my money for Lollapalooza 1993. 19 and full of myself. Can I talk to Marty McFly???
Lament is a good word. There is sometimes a bitterness that comes with listening to dead artists, with thinking of what could've been and all. The music never died tho
with out the countless punk and Hardcore bands like Fang that tirelessly worked through the 80's building the scene without hardly any recognition and they wonder how Nirvana just appeared out of nowhere? At least Nirvana pointed to them...
You can. It's just expensive. You'd need a Mesa Boogie amp head, 4 Marshall cabs, a DS1 Distortion pedal, and an electro Harmonix small clone chorus pedal. It won't be exact, but it would be pretty close to his sound.
Tooki kurts tone is really easy to get, any fender guitar with stock pickups will do. Boss Ds1 for a distortion pedal. Cobain never put that much of an effort in his tone, doesnt go with the whole punk rock aesthetic
I could get it. I have a ds1, fuzz, chorus and wah running into an orange dark terror. My weapon is an American Stratocaster with a humbucker bridge pickup
In like 1998 I bought a bootleg CD of this show for like $60 which was a lot more then and now it’s on RUclips for free. Lol. Probably the funniest part of the bootlegs we’re sold at a chain record store.
For all those debating, I love Nirvana AND the Beatles. Both had new sounds that no one had ever heard before. Because they were so new and different and insanely awesome, they're incomparable. No debate.
kurt is singing it with sarcasm and indifference, dave and krist are loving life and being rockstars! thats the difference in the band right there, kurt couldn't even enjoy the success when he got what he wanted. and yes he wanted it
I guess you don't understand what this sounds means ... thats why Krist and Dave are smiling the whole time playing this at one of the biggest festivals in the world for an audience of 60,000 people. If you pay attention the lyrics of the song and Nirvana position at that time, you understand. Punk as fuck
![Kurt Cobain & Mudhoney - The Money Will Roll Right In [Live 1992]](/img/1.gif)
I swear, watching Nirvana performances feel so cinematic, the song has such a dark undertone to the realism of fame, he sounds so dead but it makes it that much more understandable. Thank you Fang for this song.
Yeah I think the same, when I watched "Montage of Heck" the concerts didn't feel like concerts but actors playing songs
and the money will roll right in....
You realize this song is ironic right? And Kurt looks like he’s having fun, sarcastic. You have issues with depression obviously.
@@ExcitedAnacondaSnake-hg8ec why are you so rude? I’ve seen many of your comments around nirvana videos. Get a life dude, you aren’t kind to people.
This particular performance was shot on film at 24 fps, which for the better part of history has been a standard for cinema! That would make sense for sure!
Kurt’s one of the few singers where when he mumbles or slurs his words, it actually sounds good
Cobain was so awesome for covering songs from lesser-known acts that inspired him. He truly made the songs his, too. Their version of D-7 is the one of the most electrifying performances I've ever seen...
Fang was lesser known, The Wipers were somewhat bigger
Waite, D -7 is not originaly a nirvana song? I really though it was. Guess i know nothing
Man that riff is fantastic, and Kurts slurring speech actually works quite well here
Yeah it's like Sliver in that aspect of the derpy/drunk vocals lol
Nicholas H And its an easy intro to learn. If u have a guitar, its like 3 min and you know it lol
What opening riff ? yOu mean the rigff of the entire song save for some chord progression here or there, probably chorus , fuck yeah ... it´s the H Nicholas , it´s the H vibe !
Too bad he didn't write it it's a Fang song.
He had the rare ability to scream on pitch.
I swear Nirvana just gets more and more relevant as time goes by... 10/10!!♥
Nobody had topped them yet in terms of melody and energy level. They were in a league of their own.
I love his iconic hospital gown. Just his tired of everything state of mind.
American Psycho Keyser Soze Tyler Durden it was actually in reference to the reports of Kurt not being well enough to perform at Reading 1992.
I like his iconic liver and his iconic shoelaces and his iconic guitar pick and his iconic earlobe and his iconic microphone and his iconic icon and his iconic teeth.

How the fuck did they only make 3 albums, and I've been listening for 10 years, and still finding badass songs by them I've never heard before
Maybe because this isn't their song? You probably thought they wrote The Man Who Sold the World as well, didn't you...
They made at least 5 off the top of my head

hahahah yeah i thought i was the only one who noticed
It split and he threw it away.
