Description
Rod Stewart with special guest Ronnie Wood / Unplugged...and Seated - Warner Bros. Records 9362-45289-1 (Germany)(1993) ...This auction is for a very limited, original issue Record on high quality (German) vinyl.
Eric Clapton's Unplugged turned the MTV series into a pop culture phenomenon, one that was especially appealing to veteran rockers because all they had to do was dust off their old hits and give them a nice, relaxed reading -- the perfect re-imagining for middle-aged rock stars. Rod Stewart leaped at the opportunity and, in many ways, he seemed even better suited for the gig than Clapton as much of his '70s prime prominently featured acoustic guitars, including "Maggie May," "Every Picture Tells a Story," and "Gasoline Alley." Stewart upped the ante by reuniting with his old friend and Faces bandmate Ron Wood.

UNPLUGGED...AND SEATED is part of MTV's "Unplugged" series.By the time MTV got around to taping an Unplugged special with Rod Stewart, the singing soccer fanatic had spent most of the '80s and early '90s churning out albums full of glossy pop songs. UNPLUGGED...AND SEATED found Stewart going back to his earlier material where soul, folk and rock blended together into something special. Stewart made these chestnuts more authentic by reuniting with old mate Ronnie Wood. Backed by a string section, vocalists, and a couple of pianos, Stewart dug deep into his catalog for folk-flavored favorites such as "Handbags And Gladrags," "Mandolin Wind" and "Cut Across Shorty.
"Rod the Mod kept the randiness factor present by including "Hot Legs" and "Tonight's The Night" in this set, along with covers of some of his favorite songwriters including Tim Hardin ("Reason To Believe") and Van Morrison ("Have I Told You Lately"). Playing with Wood, Stewart sounds invigorated, and sturdy warhorses such as "Every Picture Tells A Story" and "Stay With Me" take on new legs.
Editorial Reviews
4 stars out of 5 -- The previously unissued cover of Bob Dylan's 'Forever Young' is tremendous...
Record Collector
3 Stars - Good - ...the gruff UNPLUGGED AND SEATED will delight fans...while the lasciviousness of 'Hot Legs' and 'Tonight's The Night' has aged badly, numbers like 'Mandolin Wind,' 'Handbags And Gladrags' and 'Reason To Believe' are framed beautifully...
Q (19930701)
...Rod still sings with plenty of feeling, his voice is stronger than ever, and the accompaniments rock much harder... - Rating: A+
Entertainment Weekly (19930528)
3 Stars - Good - ...no matter how cliched the format might seem, Stewart puts enough heart into his performance to remind us of what made these songs matter in the first place...
