Live at Reading by Nirvana

On August 30, 1992, Nirvana performed a critically acclaimed set at the Reading Festival. The setlist is made up mostly of Nevermind-era songs, with some Bleach-era tracks, three songs from the then-unreleased In Utero and two covers. The performance was released in album-form on November 3, 2009. Nirvana's appearance at the 1992 Reading Festival was the band's second performance at the annual music festival and their first since the success of their second album Nevermind had elevated them to the position of what Pitchfork called the "biggest" rock band in the world. It was also their final concert in the United Kingdom. The band's first appearance at Reading had been on 23 August 1991, when they played an approximately 40-minute set on the afternoon of the first day of the festival, during their two-week European tour with American rock band Sonic Youth. ℗ 2009 Geffen Records
