Loved this when it came out, but haven't revisited in a loooong time, partly because my reaction to his suicide was shock, sadness, and a bit of anger, and I think he prompted me to move away from rock almost entirely and towards jungle, electronica and hip-hop. I also liked the Portishead in NY concert.

I remember watching this live and liking a little over half the album. I was looking at Youtube clips and laughing. Dave Grohl looks like he is really concentrating on not unleashing his inner Animal on the drum kit.
They brought a lot of attention to the artists who's songs they covered that night. I think the Meat Puppets got signed to a major after this (could be wrong).

Donny Hathaway?
Was forced to listen to nirvana mtv unplugged a couple weeks ago: tears welling up in the backseat. That means something.
Curtis is probably the safest bet though.
Feels like I'm in the front row when I listen to this one.
