Rewind and Rock with Sharon Stewart: Nirvana’s Early Breakthrough in 1995
Description
On this day in 1995, a scrappy debut album officially went gold and platinum — but it didn’t start that way.
The band recorded their first record on a shoestring budget, pressed only a handful of singles, and had no idea they were about to change rock history.
One of the standout early tracks wasn’t even originally theirs.
Join Sharon Stewart as we rewind to the fuzzy, underground beginnings — before the world caught on.
