  This session was recorded at Sony Studios for MTV's Unplugged series and first aired on 1993.12.16.  The audio was later released on the album MTV Unplugged In New York, which included two songs that didn't originally air: "Something In The Way" and "Oh, Me."  Besides those two songs being omited, MTV also changed the order of the songs for the televised version.

DGC may have asked MTV to run a few songs ("About A Girl," "All Apologies" and "The Man Who Sold The World") in their video rotation.  If not, MTV played them on their own.  DGC did issue promotional CDs for all three songs, though.

Novoselic is credited as Chris rather than Krist, and Grohl's name is misspelled during the closing credits.
