Two vintage Nirvana videos are making the rounds today. The first is Nirvana's 1988 performance filmed at a Radio Shack in Aberdeen in 1988. As the story goes, Kurt Cobain asked an acquaintance Eric Carter, who managed the Radio Shack, to videotape his band performing after hours in the store. The video was shot on a camcorder without any effects (other than the blowing of cigarette smoke to give a "heavy metal" look to the performance). Portions of the original video originally aired as part of a television report on Nirvana in the days after Cobain's death in 1994. The version of the video below was taken and edited from that tv broadcast. Enjoy all the goodness below (via XFM)
The other Nirvana video that surfaced today is a vintage promo video for Nirvana's 1993 album In Utero. The video stars Bobcat Goldthwait giving birthing/delivery advice to Kurt, Krist, and Dave. Nirvana posted the clip today to officially announce they're releasing a 20th anniversary reissue of In Utero in September. Details on the reissue are forthcoming, but in the meantime enjoy the bizarre video below:
