UNPLUGGED

I love to hear Unplugged versions of great songs, for me the unplugged format adds a certain pureness, a different edge if you like to what are already great and well loved tunes. I have added some of my favourites here and invite you guys to add yours. Lets see if we can create a great collection here.

First up is a collaboration of two of the most influential British musicians of my lifetime and it really needs no introduction.... hope you guys enjoy...




Second is a cover of a David Bowie song by Nirvana.... The man who sold the world





Layla by Eric Clapton...





A Magical Canadian Love song....





Your turn

I too dig the unplugged versions and it seems the artist's souls have a little more room to breath and fill the space.

Staind - Outside

E. Clapton - Tears In Heaven

AIC - Nutshell

Kansas - Dust In The Wind

I know this is not "MTV Unplugged", but it is rare and is by definition "Unplugged"
