there were some excellent unplugged albums way back when. my faves are still macca's, ec's (with leavell leading the charge, of course) and rod's...prolly in that order. dylan's didn't fare so well...he shoulda gone with one of the supper club shows from the year before instead of these '94 gigs.

Strange that you mention it, because I was listening to all 4 Supper Club shows of 1993 a few days ago, and was thinking about terrific they are; and how boring the official MTV unplugged 1994 performance of Dylan is. The only great performance of the 94 show is "I Want You"......which he didn't include in the official release....!!

Concerning Rod Stewart's Unplugged album; it's OK; but I simply can't stand it when he almost starts to cry at one certain song......can't remember which song it was.... But when I heard that; I gave the CD to the local library. Who wants to hear a man crying? Not me!

on van's have i told you lately. it was a tender moment and i loved it.

you ever hear sam cooke's version of the "riddle song" which has the line "i gave my love a baby with no crying" - you can hear him choke up at the line, cos he and his wife had just lost their baby to an early death. if that don't choke you up, nothing will...
did you ever hear sam cooke when he choked up at the end of

No, I haven't heard that one.....
The only "crying/choking up" moment that brings a tear to my eye, without making me furious, is Leon Russell on his 2011 (?) concert, that was broadcasted on TV; where he sings "A Song For You"

But that's a different kind of "choking up".......because it's about time/lost time and not just sentimentality over a previous relationship

Did that make sense...? Well, I tried my best
