Nirvana - Sappy - live - 11/25/90 Off Ramp, Seattle

A great live performance of "Sappy"

[@BretBaber]

You can just tell Kurt had a great love for this song. I sometimes wonder if not putting it on an album was a way of keeping it more personal. My favorite Nirvana song since first hearing it back in '99.

[@Giova590]

They didn't like the sound of that song until they recorded with Steve Albini in 1993. That's why it was an outtake from bleach and Nevermind

[@BipolarBowler]

I used to collect grasshoppers in a jar with breathing holes and hid them in a laundry room in the early 80’s.

@@Giova590 but why it was outtake from In utero?

[@Giova590]

@@aleksandrmalkov9974 Because they weren't sure about adding jt to the song list

I am and was......... , Sappy .

[@gonzocrook1]

This is in my top five solos of all time...forget about technical playing. There is real soul in there. Straight from the artist. The Man Who Sold The World from Unplugged is still my favorite Kurt solo of all time. Maybe just solo period.

[@soulpower9126]

You are absolutely right, this song is his own laundry. Best Nirvana solo….

[@oakenclient]

though, david bowie wrote that solo, soooo... Not kurt's.

[@serio1313]

Great performance of Sappy at one of the band's best ever shows.

[@oakenclient]

There were 31 songs at this performance 😭Oh shit you made this comment 13 years ago... I couldn't even speak 13 years ago LMAO

[@graemetalbot127]

First heard this version in the "A Season In Hell" Italian bootleg box set. An Amazing Concert - the amount of enthusiasm and fun the band had playing is clearly evident! Oh for video to surface!! This version of one of my and Kurt's favourite Nirvana songs is amazing!!!

[@SalDOWN]

Thanks a lot for sharing!

[@paulwblair]

A perfect soundboard recording of this performance would make a hit single today. Stain, Verse Chorus Verse and other songs from this show is also all-time great live performances.

[@nirvanabuzz69]

Love this show! 2nd best live version of sappy in my opinion behind Milan '94.

[@seanwilliamson5720]

Favorite song of his.

[@MrStalyn]

@RebelThoughts I agree, they really played it well that night.

[@chris2k6]

que buena version!!

[@joejones9520]

he had a unique thing about his voice in that the most important quality for one of his songs to have for it to be a good song was how well it highlighted his unusual voice and not if it was actually a good song. This is why when other people sing Nirvana, unless they have almost his exact voice, it sounds horrible.

[@shockingbluefanandynirvana7364]

For me ,the best live version of Sappy is the one live at Mezzago,Italy,89' you should check it out

Chad channing sucks

[@alexleman8321]

Не обижайте его. Чед Ченнинг написал почти все партии ударных для Nevermind. Грол лишь повторил их, и стучал при этом сильнее, вот и все.

[@arth_i]

why is there such a strange way of writing months, years and days in the USA?

[@paulwblair]

Nothing strange about it. It goes from largest denomination to smallest, which is logical in ordering. I write them like that but with a four-digit year.
