#8: Rod Stewart (1993)
Rod Stewart’s 1993 MTV Unplugged, later released as Unplugged…and Seated, was a huge commercial hit that introduced him to a new generation. Joined by Ronnie Wood and a string section, Stewart delivered fresh takes on classics like “Maggie May” and “Have I Told You Lately.” The multi-platinum album highlighted his talent as an expressive vocalist, not just a rock star.
