Would you want a MTV Unplugged?

[C0ma]

Yes! Stripped down with acoustic and piano. Axl uses his deeper register. Use his smoother, honey with a fleck of dirt in it croon/voice. Subtle rasp, a little gravelly scratchy rasp, but not too much.

Wild Horses (Stones)
Tennessee Whiskey (David Allan Coe/George Jones)
A Good Year for the Roses (George Jones/Elvis Costello)
Honky Tonk Women (Stones)
You Ain't the First
Used to Love Her
You're Crazy
Dust N Bones
14 Years
Dead Flowers (Stones)
Mother/Wish You Were Here (Pink Floyd)
Only Women Bleed (Alice Cooper)
It's Alright (Sabbath)
Madagascar
Sailing (Rod Stewart)
Patience

You would go to a guns n roses show and actually like them to perform 50% of the set list as covers?  This sounds horrible to me

Ya... I don't understand this obsession with replaying all these illusion era little intro licks. Especially ones that were never really sung like Only Women Bleed and Mother... why not add Beautiful by Christina Aguilera (kidding of course)...

I'm afraid it's all reruns of old shows.

Well, still better than the current shows. ?\_(ツ)_/? 

Also, the Alice in Chains MTV Unplugged is the best and it deserves to be seen.

I haven't watched MTV in ages. But I rember the days of TRL and MTV Unplugged. I don't care about reruns. However if I have to pick reruns I'd rather watch Headbangers and Rockumentaries.

Here in Canada the music station is called Much Music

I remember the days when the request show took actual letters sent in the mail.  Then it was faxs, then emails, then the show just vanished....

I sent a few letters in the mail back in the day.   Todays youth is just spoiled with the internet

[Princess Leia]

I'm not so sure the problem is technology or the youth. Most likely the industry itself. There's been many changes for the worst. Today we have Universal, Warner and Sonny. They owned all the other record labels like Geffen, Polygram, EMI, etc The conglomarates are run by business men who are about profit and nothing more. They came from Harvard not from the entertainment world

Every mall here used to have 2-3 music stores.

Now your are lucky to get one.  And it's mostly a dvd store

I remember when you could actually pre listen to a album at the store prior to buying it

I used to listen to the import version of guns live album because it had coma in it but the store wanted 60 bucks for it and I was in college.   Lol. Dean I listened to that thing for hours

Oh I get you now. You miss the record stores. Well maybe not many of them in malls. But in the U.S. there is Best Buy. I don't know if somebody would want to give a second life to Tower Records.

But the issue is that CDs are overpriced (any new release I mean) despite of tecnology like iTunes Spotify or YouTube. And it also depends on the artist. Look at Adele, she is capable to sell albums. I guess the quality of the product also matters.

I think it is about good albums by good artists and realistic price that could mean a come back for record stores.

Siiiiiiigh.... those were the days.     Before all the bullshit technology.  Which of course, allegedly makes everything "better".
