Never realized Pat’s rhythm guitar for this live was so cool and staccato. Leaves plenty of room for Krist and Kurt’s original tones while still reinforcing. Now that’s skill and showmanship.
exactly, I just made it up genius. LOL! why are people on youtube such rude and bombastic people? Unfortunately, you can't attach screenshots to RUclips comments, but I assure, I have seen that comment on many Nirvana videos here.
@@chadgrov Chad Channing definitely was a good drummer, his work on Bleach was pretty good and he wrote some drum parts for Nevermind, his more raw and heavier style was a better pick for Bleach. But I am willing to concede that Dave is a better drummer, since obviously he's Dave Grohl.
@@upshitdownshit4200 recording was cheap and he was competent but he didn’t have that sticky John Bonham ability, Dave was and is just a superior musician
@@kaamos79 What I meant was, the new generation of nirvana "fans" just seem to listen to nevermind and maybe in utero but they should really check these stuff out as well
All respect to Chad Channing as he wrote the drum tracks to this song and almost every song off bleach, school has some of the best drumming in any nirvana song, but Dave’s improv on these fills are insane
@@indiegrab360Drain You's drums were written by someone who was not a member of Nirvana. Kurt said he had a song at a session but it couldn't be a Nirvana song cus it had no drums. Guy stepped in and wrote em. You can hear em on the Demo

Dave looks at Kurt confused, Kurt looks at Pat confused, Pat looks at Krist and realizes he's always confused so looks back at Dave and Kurt... Kurt: "Uh their show isn't until tomorrow night. Hey, while you're here, do you know any Nirvana songs? Want to sit in with us?"
Bleach was the best Nirvana album. So heavy. Kurt’s solos are also insanely bizarre and fit the mood of the songs so well. Such a dark ambiance and criminally underrated album.
1:51 - Kurt shooting the cello player some of his HOT SOLO ENERGY to make her laugh is a hidden piece of wholesomeness in an otherwise totally brutal-sounding performance. Love it.
In an alternative reality Kurt dumped Courtney, got clean, started going out with the cello player, and they now own an organic farm in upstate Washington.
1:45 I don't know why some peoole say that Kurt was a bad guitar player, If he had wanted to continue doing alone he would surely have done them well, this solo is so fucking amazing
People that say Kurt was a bad guitar player are talking about his technical ability. But his success just goes to show that technical skill has very little to do with creativity and good song writing
Kurt is all about melody and songwriting instead of pure technique and speed. People who complain about his guitar playing should just listen to Steve Vai or something.
All the best songwriters were not great guitar players-John Lennon, Noel Gallagher, Pete Towneshend, Bob Dylan, etc. Elliott Smith was a great guitar player though.
Haha, yep. AIC REALLY killed it for the thrash metal fans too.. I’m STILL happy bc of it, and I’m a thrash metal fan. It’s just that AIC is deservedly one of the best rock bands in the last 50 years, and people proved that. Nirvana was great, but they didn’t lay the impression as to take away from thrash like AIC did though. The made a huge overall impression, whereas AIC crushed ANY thing that was called “metal” and made it new again. All hail, “grunge” music.. if you wanna call the movement that.
That moment when Kurt looked at Lori like "We're going to destroy the shit outta this stage" and she looked back at him like " Don't you dare touching my cello" 😂😌
I used to listen to Nirvana in the early 2000s, in fact for a while they were ALL I listened to - they were my first 'favourite band'. I don't really listen to them any more, my tastes changed and moved on, but they will always have a special place in my heart. Every 5 or 10 years I 'remember' them and go on a bit of a youtube binge..... This song was always one of my favourites, the live version on 'Muddy Banks' in particular. Seeing this performance today, I can remember why!!!! This song is so fucking EXCITING, the one that makes me wanna jump up and down like the audience here.... the other song that still effects me like this is "School". Amazing! Still my favourite.
Probably the best performance of Blew by Nirvana. They tended to speed it up quite a bit when they played it live, and this is closer to the album version tempo. The playing is tight, and the mix in the recording is pretty good.
I love how the crowd is so into it. The Crowd is pumped up,and having a blast while at the same time keeping cool. ( Nowadays: “🤳” ) Good song,and satisfying live performance. 🖤💛😎😝🥳
I recently played with Krist at a small gathering. Didn't even know who he was (never was a Nirvana guy). He was really nice. A short time I later recieved some corn from his garden and gave it to a co-worker who might be the biggest Nirvana fan on earth. Her mind was blown. Hope she and her family had a good dinner.
Idk, I never feel as moved by other bands when I watch them live. You can feel the vibe of the atmosphere through the screen. It’d be cool to have been there
great song. Kurt knew how to write great lyrics and and make it sound so catchy. that's why Nirvana were so successful. It takes a lot of imagination and thought to write lyrics and make them sound good, and Kurt had that talent. he took what he felt and turned it into great music.
Man, this takes me back. The seamy energy and great music bring back the vibe of that great time. Imagine being a teen and hearing and listening to this for the first time during that time when all of that was happening. It's why those guys were Gods and Rock was everything. Don't you love us Gen X'ers? We're the last great generation from the last great decade.
i love seeing them live on tv, you get the full experience in a way i can't explain, all the people here still listening to this song today are amazing
Love the guy in the bottom right hand corner at about 4 sec in that recognises the song. In 1994 Nirvana was the Teen Spirit band, so that's a hard core fan

Good comment
His palm muting in this song is amazing!
Pat's great.
Dave grohl overplays everything.
Constant fills that distract, and worse, compete with the front man.
Nirvana fucked around and joked around a lot, but these guys were SOLID musicians who took it seriously.
Dave’s drumming is sick on this song.
He sick in every song he rocks tha sticks to
Nothing drives me more batty than people who claim he was the least talented Nirvana drummer behind Crover, Channing, et al

How is it 'underrated'? it's well respected, has at least 2 classic Nirvana songs, and has made a fortune for the band since its release.

The cello player is looking around concerned, "they're doing that oh".
She gets up and leaves.

🙌🤘
That drum fill at 2:26!
hey there! big fan
So intense
Never seen anything like that!! My jaw literally dropped and I rewatched it like five times!
Did you notice the cello player smiling at Kurt at 1:56?
Kind of like: "oh what a charming piece of music, young handsome man"
Filipe Bastos. That’s a girl.
I'm pretty sure it was because he was swaying toward her. Kurt had a great sense of humor.
Best moment!!! :)))
helterskelter ok this is getting out of hand. First I’m seeing you on Beatles videos now on Nirvana videos? Get out of my head!!
And how quickly she left with her cello before they started breaking the instruments
2:27 all dave's power. Best drumming
Bonzo School
He really whacks the shit out of the kit.
@@vinyldiary6664 yea
This is the best version of blew. It’s just so heavy and so loud
I love how that one guy knows what's coming
pretty much the only live version kurt played the solo seriously, most weird and interesting solo ever
You could say its live and loud LOL
Yeah like pats guitar amplifys this song to another level!
@@eatsleepdrift4494 the early blew demo from a concert from march 1988 has a cool syncopated solo, i recommend
Bleach was the best Nirvana album. So heavy. Kurt’s solos are also insanely bizarre and fit the mood of the songs so well. Such a dark ambiance and criminally underrated album.
I’m starting to favor it over their Nevermind album (aka they’re most popular one), just because of About A Girl, Blew, Scoff on this album.
Absolutely ties with Fecal Matter. Jamming upstairs in the bedroom

Technically, these were Chad's
I’ll never fully understand just how Kurt was able to sing with such ferocity
Well, he’s compressing, but when he yells, he’s ACTUALLY yelling. Some people’s yells and screams are a lot more powerful than others.

U can tell by the way they looked at each other
There's also an alternate reality where Courtney Love didn't murder Kurt Cobain in cold blood.
@@joeyoung9185 if only it were true. 😔😔

His talent comes not from technique but from creativity, like Jimi Hendrix

Very much like Lou Reed, more than Hendrix
Kurt is all about melody and songwriting instead of pure technique and speed. People who complain about his guitar playing should just listen to Steve Vai or something.
All the best songwriters were not great guitar players-John Lennon, Noel Gallagher, Pete Towneshend, Bob Dylan, etc. Elliott Smith was a great guitar player though.
When these guys came out I was an 80s metalhead pissed off that they were killing the scene. God I would die to get these guys back!
right?
Lol no, lots of those metal heads loved nirvana
Then came AIC and blew them away...
Haha, yep. AIC REALLY killed it for the thrash metal fans too..

I love Kurt’s moment connecting with the cello player - now that’s a good bandleader right there! Wish he was still around.
Raw and dirty, no matter which year you hear it
For real
Its such real music, as opposed to a lot of music made to make money
and, indeed, a song from the 80s!

• blitzedPIG I wish I could've
lucky you !!! how was it ?
an audio recording of that show exists if you haven't heard it

dude, new song from nirvana!!!
What?? Lol
yeah something like that.
No
If you're discovering Nirvana, you'll be surprised so much more times.
??? Is the first song from their first album lol
Probably my favorite Nirvana song of all time.
What an amazing heavy metal Nirvana song. One of the old forgotten classics and even has a strange old Aerosmith vibe or something. Brilliant song
Greatest band of all time.
After the Beatles.
Whole band is on point, Kurt's vocals are awesome, guitars sound good, drums are intense and the bass tone on this is beastly
One of the most underrated songs from Nirvana
