- Опубликовано: 13 окт 2020
- This one is very special - it's the first ever video footage of Nirvana's live concert. They performed as Ted Ed Fred, the lineup was:
Kurt Cobain: vocal, guitar
Krist Novoselic: bass
Dale Crover: drums
And... it was the same day they recorded Dale's Demo, which was partly released on Incesticide in 1992.
I did my best to improve both audio and video quality. Soundboard audio is synced wherever possible.

That drop into moby was so sick and then it’s a noise rock jam or imo ripcord pull by Kurt purposefully or not.

I love charlie brown,.
Crazy how much of Nirvanas history is archived
I'm still waiting for 1982 Organised Confusiom demo to emerge.
Thanks to some time traveling, but I love it
Exactly dude like Kirts history snd nirvanas history is so well documented its crazy honestly
fr somehow i swear@@mikezayas324
@@BobHarley Unfortunately, it probably won't come out, since Courtney's sitting on it - she only allowed 7 seconds of it to play during the Kurt and Courtney documentary in 1998 before threatening to sue if anymore was played
Kurt’s voice was a laser canon at 100%. He was pure, and 21 with all his energy and talent. The crowd that night got like 18 “Drain You/ Scentless Apprentice” screams and Paper cuts? So lucky.
THE AUDIO ON THIS IS IMPECCABLE FOR A LIVE RECORDING!! AMAZING!! KURT'S VOICE IS FCKN CRAZY GOOD, HIS VOCAL CORDS SEEM LIKE THEY CAN GO ON FOR A FULL 24 HOURS OF SCREAMING!! NO ONE CAN MATCH HIS CREATIVITY WITH HIS VOICE. PERIOD. caps lock off
They definitely had a busy day, since they recorded a 10 song demo with Jack Endino the same day.
The reason the audio is so good is due to them having a soundboard which almost always will record good audio it’s how nirvana did the in utero 30th shows they took soundboard recordings of the show!
I freakin LOVE the echo effect on Kurt’s voice during the early shows.
Dale is such a beast.
Who’s Dale?
@@angleface2048Dale Crover, the drummer from The Melvins.
Kurt loved Dale. His highest compliment for other drummers was "Almost-Dale level", which is what he thought of Dave.
Dale is way better than Dave im sorry
Early Nirvana is (in my opinion) when Kurt wrote his most interesting and best music. His guitar playing overall is a lot more complex than what he did with later in their career. The main reason why he changed his playing later is so that he could concentrate more on his vocals, as he struggled to sing as well as he wanted due to having to concentrate mostly on his playing. If you listen to songs like 'Mexican Seafood' he is not singing the lyrics he wrote for the studio recording that he recorded on that same day. He would mumble some times in the early days due to this. That said, I personally think that pre Bleach is the greatest music wise. Incesticide is my favourite, even though it is a collection of different recordings from before Nevermind was recorded, with the exception of that version of Aneurysm which was recorded later. I love everything they did. Also, the changing their style from one album to another kept them interesting so you're not listening to the same thing on each album. I prefer the earlier versions of Polly, even though the acoustic version sets the mood of the story better. I love all their songs, but I just love his guitaring in the early days. People who don't consider him to be a great technical player should listen to his early songs!
I agree. Polly with Chad Channing was song's best renderition. Pre-Bleach era was probably the darkest, I wonder how many songs were written between Illiteracy Will Prevail and Bleach that were never recorded...
Yeah, there's probably a lot of home recordings that have still yet to be heard on various tapes as he recorded a lot of his ideas for songs on a basic tape recorder
@@owenrick393 i hope his 1982 demo will be related eventually
Точно. Я тоже люблю ранний период. Он великолепен. Жаль что мало записей живых выступлений дошли до наших дней
Okay hipsters...
I was at that show, I was 15. There with the older kids that I skated with. Lakewood. Tacoma community world theatre.
Would love to know the energy there, what did u guys thought about them (nirvana), your reaction to the songs?
Wow, thats amazing.
Lucky day❤
But ...this is more than gold 😮❤
This is beyond everything...
This is probably the greatest footage to capture the real essence of the band, like damn that guy changed the whole world.
I never thought i would ever actually hear Pen Cap Chew in its entirety! 😮
One of my favorite Nirvana songs!
Pure magic ...
There is a full demo version of it as well
This version is way better
Nirvana 88 is the best Nirvana
HEAVILY agree
Framengo
So this is where that live version of Floyd the barber on the sliver best of the box release came from. I’ve always loved that version
the tightness of this band is incredible
It's Dale
man, they were super good. ALREADY. wow not so many band sound this good in their early stages.
Most bands sound better and get worse over time...
Having Dale Crover on drums is a big part of why they sounded so good, not taking anything away from Kurt or Krist, but Dale is one of the best drummers alive.
@@Slappi2 😂😂 I’d have a lot more money if I was
Dale the monster Crover on drums. Amazing
Except for fucking up at the start of Hairspray Queen
And at the end of Beeswax
@@chucktouchton398he used to play more complex stuff i gues
A true master of the craft
@@chucktouchton398 so what? he is human and was rehearsing with them weeks ago.
Dang, the sound on this is fricken' great.
Anorexorcist really hits different with that vocal delay
What an awesome set list. Kurt's voice is unbelievably good, his screams were giving me goosebumps. Miss you Kurt...
Greatest drummer ❤
you're talking shit here friend
@@kurtd17779 Even if he doesn't know that it's Crover instead of Channing or Grohl, he's still right haha
He’s great. What happened to him?
@@soarornorThe Melvins
@@pricila6511 Thanks. Yeah, I went and looked him up. Very multi faceted guy. His drumming style reminds me of Blue Cheer’s drummer Paul Whaley.
Aero zeppelin. What a song. If anything was "missing" on in utero, it would have been another song like that. For me that song is your every day pure nirvana song and sappy. Just bleeds cobain ❤
3 years later they were the biggest band in the world. It was so cool that this show was in my home town where I was born and raised. This theater was only a few blocks from my grandfathers house. Some pretty cool acts played at this place.
I'd say about 4 is more like it but you make a great point ha. I always like to look at Kurts mugshot from 85 and think wow...7 years and he would be on the cover of Rolling Stone
CWT!
And then 3 years later he was gone...so fast, too fast.
Where is this in Tacoma?
54th & M@@AleisterMeowley
this shits fire, hope these guys become big someday
Lol
This is old. But yes they became huge. You've never heard of Nirvana??? Theyre dead
@@crieverytim r/Woosh
@@Beef....this is youtube. You're thinking of reddit.
8:56
"deuce! cover!"
"you got the wrong band! we're not the melvins"
Hah!
Goddamn... Imagine record a full show of a then underground band in late 80s, and a few years later this band became one of the greatest bands in history
Yeah, that's amazing! In my opinion, the band who revolutionised the sound the most, at its best 💥
Nirvana has been very good ALWAYS:).
Kurt was such a dork for not wanting to play Paper Cuts in later years. It's one of his better ones.
Crover is setting the standard for all Nirvana drummers to come.
And they never matched it
Damn!!!! they were so good since the begining.
6:15 Best sounding feedback I've ever heard
exactly the same from the one in floyd the barber from the album
*they recorded floyd the barber the same day this was recorded
@@TwelfthQuotientyeah i love that studio recording session, the guitar sounds so raw
Damn.. 1988 and they were already awesome!
^%~~~~~~***-/+*548
What a great sounding set, I’m usually very biased for their 91/early 92 shows but this is absolutely incredible. It’s one of the shows where I can imagine myself being some sleazy Record company rep scout and being like “ WOWZA we gotta sign these boys fast yipeee”
That scream at 1:29... chills!
Listen to what happened 2 months later (2:34). Kurt's scream was so powerful that Dave Foster lost the beat for a moment.

@@BobHarley Wow...! That’s just amazing!
@@BobHarley it says no video!!
@@BobHarley , mann, video not available.
@@BobHarley This video is unavailable
Early Nirvana, soooo good, great sound, pure gold. Thanks for this gem.
Wow, nice registration! This is the first time I actually see a part of the history of Nirvana I've only read about. Thanks for sharing!
Wow this is basically spot on to the album versions...I've seen/heard a LOT of old/bootlegged stuff from Nirvana over the years...but this is the first time I've seen this. Very cool, would be even cooler if the video quality was on par with the sound. Thanks ✌️
Also this is the same day they recorded Dales Demo, whiches 3 songs were included on Bleach.
Same equipment it sounds like too. He kept breaking all his awesome sounding mosrite univoxes and the older songs never all sounded quite the same with strats.
It's a little fuzzy but I'm glad it stayed on one spot. Great to see the drummer and rest of the band jam together on every song. My first time seeing this and the drummer!. He's really good.Thanks for upload.
Awesome. Nirvana was the best by far.
They sound incredible here! I'd even say even better than anything I heard after the 80s.
You just end up wondering as an older guy, how 21-year old can sound like that. He is unbelieveable. All that fear and horror in his voice. Kurt is scared to the bone, or he mimics it extremely well. I saw him live in 1992.
Oh god
I would buy this on CD!
You can rip the audio from this, I can't tell you how, but do a Google search and you'll probably find out how super easily.
Yeah, this is the best source you can get for this performance
10:32 this part is straight from Slayer… Seasons in the Abyss? People don’t realize how much metal is in early Nirvana. Krist talked about how much the loved Celtic Frost around the time they wrote the stuff on Bleach too.
I love the echo effect on the vocals for Anorexorcist ! Never heard Kurt use that before. Trippy
For me their best era was 88-89. Just way more feeling and intensity than their later years
You couldn’t be more wrong - 1991 was their peak. You need to go and watch some more live shows. Rome 91, paradiso, Leeds, to name a few
I dont think you understand dont you? i mean he probably knows that 91 was probably their best year, but for him its 1989, because i think he likes it more, dont judge everyones minds@@river2352
@@river2352 I love that time the most. When they had Nevermind songs but it wasn't out yet.
Let me add that whilst I did say 91 was their peak, this show is absolutely incredible. Kurt, Krist and dale are tuned to something higher. Should have kept dale longer
Riiiight 😂
video smooth as fuck and sound like a soundboard bro. epic edited. i appriecte you. thanks bro 👐👏
There's soundboard audio on most of the recording, except Beeswax and both Hairspray Queens.
I was 10 days old when Nirvana plays this show.😁
FUCK YEAH, thanks for the QUALITY. annorexorcist sounds like hell in a good way
Kurt did what he did
And what he did was innovative, breath taking and totally brilliant across the board. He changed up styles along the way, but he was blessed with a talent where he could go anywhere he wanted with that talent and remain as brilliant as he was.
Idk, but he seemed to know that.❤
Dale is amazing!
if only those ppl had a clue the greatness they were blessed to witness right there and then..
@BobHarley Am I experiencing some stranger than fiction kind of moment here??
The way you improved the audio data is just beyond everything man!!
Thank you very much for sharing this rare piece of music history ❤
I mean, dale and kurt, man!! Live, loud and beautiful.
A fuckin wizard’s work!!
How is it that they were so friggin amazing even in their beginning days and sounded better than bands with over 30 years under their belt? True talent!!! And loving the DS1!
Wooah this live ... such a treasure, I've never seen Nirvana playing these songs, thanks !
Wow, just when I thought I witnessed it all. Along cones this fantastic piece of recorded history.
This is so good!
Thank you so much!
Amazing how good this is....... Great job Bob Harley
Good job with enhancing the audio. Sounds better in comparison to when I first watched it and heard this video on RUclips. I Originally had it on a bootleg CD I bought nearly 25 years ago. It was a very bad quality recording, but at the time I was just happy to have owned it as I was obsessed with Nirvana and Kurt imparticiulary when I was a teenager. I wanted to hear everything I possibly could by them no matter how poor the recordings were. The original 10 track demo they recorded on the same day as this is my all time favourite studio recording by them. Spank thru should have been put onto Incesticide or the very least Without The Lights Boxset as that recording is in my opinion the best studio version of the song recorded, so why it's never officially been released is beyond me. Anyway, thanks for taking the time to upgrade the sound quality of this live recording!!!
I’m glad someone else said it, definitely my favorite rendition of Spank Thru. Such a jam.
they sound awesome!!!! thanks for posting
Fantastic show. Tnx a lot. Crover amazing.
Gold.good job!
This is awesome so far
Awesome! Thanks dude!
So f’n raw and great I can taste it. Thanks for the upload. Great job on the audio.
Thanks for uploading this gem in such a good quality 👍
The audio is incredible wonderfull
Thanks so much for this. I don’t search nirvana footage but this was a pleasant surprise in my feed! I had no idea any recording of this existed. I was blasting bleach and Ozma in my bedroom in 89. 🎉I just saw melvins on their 40 year anniversary tour and Dale is just as fast (but I notice this is pre-drum gloves 😂)
Great soundboard recording.
WOW such an amazing concert just awesome
Thank you for this rare gem! I love the Crover lineup.
Dang, this is really good!!! Thank you for the upload.
Dale Crover is a monster drummer. Tight!
wow this is great audio quality
Wow this is amazing. Also love how Kurt messes up the first verse of Floyd the barber.
Cool!!!
Love anything Nirvana, Saw them with Shonen Kniife and the Breeders and they were awesome! Amazed at the quality of this audio! Great video and totally made my day. Thanks!
Nice
love people who shares this culture things
Gracias.
The lighting guy worked hard here!!
Very good
It's very compelling and sounds great.. I only know them from mainstream radio mostly and this is better.Sound quality high.
Imagine how good it would be in stereo!
Damn that snare drum sounds perfect!! They were almost the next Black Sabbath but chose to shine a little brighter.
This is EYE OPENING
If you must is so cool
Pure gold ❤😂🎉
Holy crap the audio is incredible for 1988 nirvana audio is better than some pro shoots for band from this time craps wild and they where a small local band at this time how to we even have this
Audio recording is a separate soundboard recording from the same concert, unfortunately it's mono but yeah, it sounds amazing
Holy shit what was that first song. An absolute banger
If you must
If you must. Yea it’s so underrated. Listen to the studio recording on with the lights out.
One of the first mighty Nirvana songs.
Wow they sound incredible
"If you must" = Progressive Doom metal at its finest
Dude what a fire set
This is not pop-grunge, this is GRUUUUNGE!!
Just like the Beatles who fused Rock with Pop, Nirvana became huge by fusing Grunge with Pop.
@@aisle_of_view i know that, but this is before those mixed blendings and i prefer this era
Snare sounds so clean!
обожаю старые концерты нирваны. вновь и вновь пересматриваю и я каждый раз в восторге!!!!
Старые песни круче, примеры:
Bleach, insecticide
Shout out to person in charge of sound. Vocals are so clear 🤝
This must have been recorded off the desk. Sound quality is amazing.
It was, at least most of it. And they recorded their first demo on the same day!
solid show
You could already see in this early video that they were gonna be huge !
Amazing
Ted Ed Fred is a national treasure
Love the Peavey bass amp!
Amazing soound quality
