Mastered at Bernie Grundman Mastering! Cut from original analogue master tapes and Pressed on 180 Gram Audiophile Vinyl at RTI!
Recorded in November 1993, less than six months before singer Kurt Cobain killed himself, Nirvana's MTV Unplugged is a watershed document that presents a band at the peak of its powers. Unlike any other "unplugged" affair, the diverse album is not a simple stripped-down regurgitation of greatest hits or a cash-it-in set of nostalgic favorites. Rather, the live effort is among the most emotionally naked spectacles ever released-an album so starkly intense and profoundly personal, it's impossible not to get chills down the spine.
Such intimacy and wide-range dynamics are reasons why to seek out the best-ever pressing of this detailed gem. Cut for ORG from the original master tapes by Bernie Grundman and pressed on colored 180-gram virgin vinyl at RTI, ORG's Limited Edition Collector's Version is the definitive edition of this masterpiece. Hear the soft pitter-patter of drummer Dave Grohl's delicate brushwork, the shape of each hushed note coming from Cobain's guitar, and every inhale and exhale of Cobain's voice from a stunning, up-close perspective that puts the band onstage in your room

I then realized that no one can take your soul if you know what you have and you don't want them to. I wrote the song that became SOULJACKER part II in my head during these 10 days. Breaking the retreat's rule about not writing anything, I would go to the outdoor bathroom and use the pencil for bathroom cleaning duty sign-up, and write the words on toilet paper, hiding it whenever someone came in.
Later we wrote SOULJACKER part I, which is about the ugliness of a soulless life. And then came all the other characters in this world that make up SOULJACKER.
Just thought I should explain. It's really a beautiful thing. Thanks.
