DELUXE COLLECTORS EDITION.
UNPLUGGED… AND SEATED is a live album released by British musician Rod Stewart on 24th May 1993 by Warner Bros. Records. It is Stewart's second live album and his first and only appearance on MTV Unplugged. A special collector's edition was released in March 2009 on Rhino Records. This two-disc package includes the DVD of the performance with 13 songs while the CD contained 17 tracks including two songs "Gasoline Alley" and "Forever Young" not on the original 1993 release. The album was recorded on 5th February 1993 at Universal Studios, Los Angeles as part of MTV's Unplugged series. The event aired on television on 5 May of the same year. Unplugged finds Rod Stewart reunited, for the first time in nearly twenty years, with Ronnie Wood, a fellow Faces band member. Rod Stewart 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 joke Rod Stewart made during the taping about "Stay With Me" being difficult to perform while sitting down. Four songs were taped but not included on the subsequent album release although "It's All Over Now" was included as the B-side to the single for "Reason To Believe".

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 Eric Clapton as much of his '70s prime prominently featured acoustic guitars, including "Maggie May" and "Every Picture Tells A Story." Rod Stewart upped the ante by reuniting with his old friend and Faces bandmate Ron Wood, giving UNPLUGGED … AND SEATED the appearance of an event... an appearance that was entirely intentional. Where Clapton's Unplugged was a natural phenomenon, a blockbuster delivered with no preconceived notions, UNPLUGGED … AND SEATED is designed as a hits revue, playing upon nostalgia while delivering mellow sounds for middle age. This is no bad thing, necessarily, particularly when the song selection is so strong - all the big hits from that early-'70s golden age, plus Rod's recent cover of Van Morrison's "Have I Told You Lately," Tom Waits' "Tom Traubert's Blues," and a reworked version of the folk standard "Highgate Shuffle" thrown in for good measure - and the chemistry between Rod Stewart and Ron Wood is still so cheerful. These are ultimately nothing more than mild signs of road wear on a record that's a nice night out with the boys, nothing more, nothing less. This Collectors Edition comprises an expanded 17-track digitally remastered version of the album featuring two bonus recordings did not appear on the original album plus the bonus DVD containing the performance, which aired on MTV but has never been released in any format.
