No, it's because the record was released like two years later. The instant release of material didn't exist at the time. It's a classic album, and I still listen to it on occasion. I especially love listening to Leadbelly and Kurt back to back doing renditions of "Where Did You Sleep Last Night". Also, as much as I love Bowie, I think that Nirvana stole "The Man Who Sold the World," and that they own it now.I didn't realize that the Unplugged show was only 4 months prior to his suicide. It didn't seem so close at the time, but then months are like years when you're seventeen.
