Nirvana Baby Recreates Album Cover Photo 25 Years Later

According to the Rolling Stone magazine readers, the third most iconic music album cover of all time is Nirvana’s Nevermind . And to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the album the original money-chasing baby Spencer Elden joined photographer John Chapple in recreating the album-defining moment.

Spencer was more than happy to reprise his iconic role, except he wanted to do it exactly the same – naked. But eventually, the photographer convinced him to put on shorts and make the session widely available to all the audiences. Spencer was paid $200 for the photoshoot, exactly the same amount as his parents received for the original session back in 1991.

The second Nirvana’s album became the grunge genre-defining piece and among music critics, it remains as one of the most influential music records in history.
