Unplugged

neil young unplugged

 Live album recorded on 7 February 1993 as  an installment of the MTV's Unplugged series and released four months later. 

Hughesy's assessment:There was a time when significant musos playing all-acoustic versions of material that was (previously) mostly electric had a certain charm. But, seriously, if it's not a serious reworking, what's the point? (Apart from the TV ratings and the squillion albums you can move outside your serious fan community). As a pleasant collection of Commercial Neil, Acceptable, I guess.
