Hole

In February 1995, Hole delivered a powerful performance at the Brooklyn Academy of Music for MTV's iconic 'Unplugged' series. This live album, recorded shortly after their acclaimed 'Live Through This,' showcased the rawness and vulnerability of frontwoman Courtney Love's songwriting. Interestingly, these performances came right on the heels of Love's rising fame, amid the intense public scrutiny following Kurt Cobain's death, which cast a shadow over the band's trajectory. The setlist featured haunting renditions of tracks like 'Miss World' and 'He Hit Me (And It Felt Like A Kiss),' reflecting the band's edginess and emotional depth. This concert not only captured the essence of '90s grunge but also marked a pivotal moment where Hole, both as a band and Love as an artist, began to navigate the complexities of fame while staying true to their roots.
