Free Music Notes for From the Muddy Banks of the Wishkah
Free Music Review: A mighty fine live record from Nirvana
Hit: 5 Stars
Seattle is known for producing the finest alternative in the 1990s. Pearl Jam, Mudhoney, Mother Love Bone and Alice In Chains all hail from Seattle. And, in my opinion, the best group to come out of Seattle was by a long shot Nirvana. Led by the heavy vocals of Kurt Cobain, Nirvana made some of the best music of the 1990s.
Tragically, Cobain shot and killed himself in 1994, committing suicide. And, in 1995, to commemorate Nirvana's legacy as a live act, Geffen released 'From The Muddy Banks of the Wishkah,' which is easily one of the finest live records of the 1990s.
You get shows dating back to the bands beginnings in 1989, right up until late 1993. It's great live record that documents every phase of Nirvana's short career.
Overall, if you're a new or casual fan of the group who wants more than their studio offerings and 'MTV Unplugged In New York,' than this is the set for you. It's by a long shot my favorite Nirvana CD that I own.
Highly recommended for any Nirvana fan. ENJOY!!!
From the Muddy Banks of the Wishkah Poster
Kurt Cobain's former bandmates Krist Novoselic and Dave Grohl clearly had an agenda in compiling From the Muddy Banks of the Wishkah, the second of what will no doubt be a long line of posthumous Nirvana albums. Because of its somber, intense nature, the first post-Cobain release, MTV Unplugged in New York, was largely perceived as music for a wake--an impression reinforced by MTV's constant airings of the special in the days following Cobain's suicide. But that acoustic detour aside, the Nirvana live experience was always about displaying a lust for life--not a death wish--with all the energy the musicians could muster. Wishkah offers 16 songs spanning the band's career, all delivered in the loudest, most frenzied, and sometimes the sloppiest versions imaginable. In the opening "Intro," a snippet of pre-show noise, Cobain screams his heart out in joyful contrast to the haunted screams on "Where Did You Sleep Last Night." Then the group launches into "School," which ends with the spirited chorus "Don't be sad." Indeed, it's impossible to dwell on the maudlin when listening to these renditions of "Smells Like Teen Spirit," "Sliver," "Heart-Shaped Box," and "Negative Creep"--they're too loud and too full of life. But while it should be applauded, Wishkah isn't the great lost Nirvana album--there are no unheard gems to add to the catalog--and in the end, it isn't nearly as essential as any of the band's studio albums--or even the downbeat but revelatory Unplugged. --Jim DerogatisAlternative Rock Music CDs
