Unplugged...and Seated is a live album released by Rod Stewart on May 24, 1993 (see 1993 in music). It is Rod’s second live album and his first (and only) appearance on MTV Unplugged. The album was released by Warner Bros. Records (WEA 9362-45289-1/2). The unplugged versions of “Have I Told You Lately” by Van Morrison, “Reason to Believe”, “Having a Party”, and “People Get Ready” were released as singles.

Album Information
The album was recorded on February 5, 1993 at Universal Studios, Los Angeles, CA as part of MTV’s unplugged series. The event aired on television May 5 of the same year. Unplugged finds Rod reunited, for the first time in nearly twenty years, with Ron Wood, a fellow Faces band member. Rod performs some of the classics from his repertoire such as, “Tonight's the Night” and “Maggie May”, but also adds some new material such as “Having a Party” and “Highgate Shuffle”. The album title comes from a small joke Rod made during the taping. Six songs that were taped were not included on the subsequent album release.

Charts
The album did very well in both the US and UK. It reached #2 in both markets and by 1994 was platinum in the UK. On November 13, 1995 it was certified triple platinum in the US.

ROLLING STONE REVIEW

Let's start with truth in pack-aging: Rod Stewart's Unplugged ... and Seated is packed to the gills with clichés. It's mostly oldies. It's got a guest star, Stewart's former Faces sidekick Ron Wood. It finds the band pretending there's something special about playing a few rockers on acoustic guitars. It has the star make a few old-guy jokes.

It plays things pretty much by the book, in other words, and as such would hardly be worth bothering with save for one thing – the singing. Because no matter how clichéd the format might seem, Stewart puts enough heart into his performance to remind us of what made these songs matter in the first place.

Some of it seems to be the spirit of the evening, as Stewart feeds happily off Wood's ragged rhythm work on "Cut Across Shorty" or pulls an almost improvisatory energy from the loose-limbed groove of "Highgate Shuffle." But mostly it's a matter of Stewart's bringing his songs to life in a way few other rockers have ever managed. It's one thing to joke, in "Reason to Believe," that he cut the song when his wife was only a year old, quite another to offer a version of "Maggie May" that leaves the listener believing he really does have to get back to school.

Not only does Stewart do both, but he delivers the goods with such grace that it's tempting to ignore the few moments when the album really does come up short. What could be a better reason to believe than that?

J.D. CONSIDINE

In order to assist everyone who buys and sells rare discs, Record Collector magazine has originated a set of standards for the condition

of second-hand records, cassettes and CDs. Anyone buying or selling records through the magazine must use our conditions to state what

amount of wear and tear the disc, its sleeve and/or contents have been subject to. The seven standard condition categories, and a description

of what each one means, are listed below:

MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks

or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such

as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records

advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there

is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging

might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but

displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable

surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on

the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has

noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild

scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of

edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for

properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump.
The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface

noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly

missing.

BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
