![]() ![]() Smack dab in the middle of "Unplugged"'s impressive '90s stretch lies one of its most sophisticated and mystifying offerings: Bob Dylan’s MTV Unplugged album, which celebrates its 25th anniversary this month. With a deceptively simple ethos of stripping back the sparkle and roar of electric instruments in favor of the "nowhere to hide" proving ground of live acoustic performances, the unforgiving "Unplugged" format generated some of the most iconic musical moments of the decade. While MTV’s "Unplugged" has mostly been around in some form or fashion over the last three decades, there’s no denying that it’s most memorable and creatively fertile period was its initial run throughout the entirety of the 1990s.
