What Is Neil Young: MTV Unplugged About?
The premise of Neil Young: MTV Unplugged without spoilers.
Released in 1993, this live album captures Neil Young’s performance for MTV’s Unplugged series. It features the previously unheard track “Stringman,” a song originally written in 1976, and the full concert was also issued on VHS. Tensions ran high during the session, as Young was dissatisfied with most of his band’s playing, leading the producers to record a second take that became the version released commercially.
