Rod Stewart - Tonight's The Night (Gonna Be Alright) (3:59)ġ7. Annie Lennox - Here Comes The Rain Again (4:29)ġ1.
Lenny Kravitz - Are You Gonna Go My Way (6:16)Ġ9. Whereas the MTV show concentrated on pre-Soul Cages songs, on this release you get excellent performances of Why Should. The difference between the version screened on MTV and this release however, is the inclusion of an additional song and interview. Those issues aside, memorable performances do abound here, from some of the most important names in the history of pop music.Ġ1. This video is the MTV Unplugged performance which was recorded in New York on 5 March 1991. Aside from R.E.M., many notable performances from the show's early years (which featured, among others, the Cure and 10,000 Maniacs with their memorable rendition of "Because the Night") are conspicuously absent from the disc, as well as performances from the landmark Unplugged hip-hop sessions. Very Best of MTV Unplugged compiles some of the series most lauded moments, most notably Eric Clapton's smash performance of "Tears in Heaven." However, this is by no means a complete document of the sheer depth of talent that the show has provided over the years, nor is it indicative of the diversity that has been showcased. The show was met with surprisingly high acclaim and viewership, and everyone and their brother signed up for an "acoustic" session. As one of the most highly acclaimed series in the history of MTV, Unplugged afforded the opportunity for some of commercial music's most praised entertainers (as well as those musicians with a bit more artistic merit) to spotlight their hit songs in a different context.
