Asked to perform on MTV UNPLUGGED, Bruce Springsteen, typically intractable, started out with an unreleased solo acoustic ditty, announced that the unplugged portion of the show was over and called out a full electric band to play the rest of the set. This isn't the E Street Band, but the session band he assembled to tour after releasing HUMAN TOUCH and LUCKY TOWN in 1992. The set is heavy with songs from those albums--vaguely optimistic tunes about love, babies, and the light of day that waits just around the bend even through the darkest night.
Diehard Springsteen fans will no doubt be put off by the lack of E Streeters, but as compensation they get the first appearance on an album of Springsteen performing "Light Of Day," which he wrote for Joan Jett, and that unreleased opening number, the surprisingly saucy "Red Headed Woman." There are also overhauled versions of the E Street classics "Darkness on The Edge Of Town" and "Thunder Road."
