Q Magazine (12/99, p.82) - Included in Q Magazine's "90 Best Albums Of The 1990s."
NME (8/12/00, p.29) - Ranked #27 in The NME "Top 30 Heartbreak Albums".
Mojo (1/95, p.51) - Included in Mojo's "25 Best Albums of 1994" - "...a performance of raw vulnerability that served as the perfect epitaph for poor Kurt Cobain."
New York Times (1/5/95, p.C15) - Included on Neil Strauss' list of the Top 10 Albums of '94 - "...These songs...[are] strings of epitaphs delivered in a blistering, electrifying unplugged show."
Village Voice (2/28/95) - Ranked #4 in the Village Voice's 1994 Pazz & Jop Critics Poll.
New Musical Express (12/24/94, p.22) - Ranked #4 in NME's list of the `Top 50 Albums Of 1994.'
Rolling Stone (10/1/94, pp.120-121) - 4 Stars - Excellent - "...Nirvana's performance is stirring and occasionally brilliant, electricity be damned....Without the wild blasts ordinarily produced to fire Nirvana's sound, Cobain's love-buzz vocals are the focus..."
Spin (1/95, p.71) - Highly Recommended - "...UNPLUGGED captures the moment of Nirvana bathing in its own richly deserved light, and though the moment couldn't last, nothing in the music suggests that there was anything inevitable or natural about the next chapter of the story..."
Q Magazine (12/94, p.147) - 4 Stars - Excellent - "...stripped of the noise...the band sounds most moving, possessed of a ragged glory. And...it becomes clearer than ever just how much Nirvana owed to less feted Americans such as The Sneakers, dBs and Mitch Easter's Let's Active..."
Melody Maker (10/29/94, p.35) - "...gut-twistingly poignant....a fine and unreservedly recommended album, a melancholy masterpiece..."
New Musical Express (10/29/94, p. 45) - 9 - Excellent Plus - "...this album makes its makers sound legendary. Your hankies should be at the ready..."
Entertainment Weekly (11/4/94, pp. 70-71) - "...Listening to MTV UNPLUGGED IN NEW YORK is an unsettling experience....the band...concentrates on the numbed-out chamber-grunge numbers....delicacy and intimacy of these acoustic re-arrangements hint...where Nirvana...could have gone..." - Rating: A
Alternative Press (1/95, pp.63-64) - "...UNPLUGGED is about as fine a memento mori as anyone could hope for..."
