In Concert/MTV Plugged is a 1992 concert video and 1993 live album by Bruce Springsteen.
It is part of MTV's Unplugged series, recorded on September 22, 1992 at the Warner Hollywood Studios in Los Angeles near the start of Springsteen's tour for Human Touch and Lucky Town. (See: Bruce Springsteen and the 1992-1993 Tour).
Bruce Springsteen famously played one song, the previously unreleased "Red Headed Woman", solo on acoustic guitar, then he and his hired band (this was during the time the E Street Band was dissolved) used amplified instruments the rest of the show; hence, the concert was called MTV Plugged (sometimes written XXPlugged after the album cover art). Reportedly Springsteen had been unhappy with the touring band's rehearsals of acoustic arrangements, and this is what led him to break the Unplugged format.
Album
The album had a lukewarm reception; Entertainment Weekly would later refer to "In Concert/MTV Plugged, which, with E Street ringers focusing on Bruce's 'solo' material ... well, we won't go there."[2] The numbers played on the show were relatively intense renditions, as highlighted by Springsteen's vocals and much of the instrumental accompaniment. The sombre, folk-oriented "Atlantic City" was played in a rock band setting, with a rhythm intro played on electric guitar as well as Springsteen's solos on the outro section. The show also, in a few ways, served to showcase Bruce Springsteen's soloing, as he played outro solos on most of the rock numbers, including the song "Lucky Town". Along with the applause from the audience, the common beloved chant of "Bruuuuce..." can be heard with some of the songs. The album was not immediately released in the United States, and when it was released in 1997, it reached number 189 on the album charts — which remains the worst such position of any album in his entire career — failing to achieve gold record status. This may be largely due to its being his only album with a delayed American release. It was more popular in the United Kingdom, where it reached number 4 on the album charts.
REVIEW
review
by William Ruhlmann
Released in Europe to coincide with Bruce Springsteen's spring 1993 tour of the continent, this album is a 13-track, nearly 72-minute audio version of Springsteen's video concert broadcast on MTV in the fall of 1992. It was part of the network's Unplugged series, but after performing the first, previously unheard song "Red Headed Woman" alone on guitar, Springsteen shouted, "All right, let's rock it!," and departed from the acoustic format. (The album's title has an "X" drawn through the "Un" of "Unplugged.") Eight of the selections come from Springsteen's 1992 albums Human Touch and Lucky Town, and the relatively minor tracks from the former benefit from being sequenced among the more ambitious songs from the latter and such old favorites as "Darkness on the Edge of Town" and "Thunder Road." Though Springsteen and his new band don't "rock it" too hard for the most part, a notable exception is a performance of the previously unrecorded "Light of Day," a title song Springsteen wrote for a 1987 movie. Here, he gives a taste of the enthusiasm and spontaneity he can bring to his live performances. But this is an album of small pleasures rather than a major performance statement.

RECORD COLLECTOR GRADING SYSTEM
In order to assist everyone who buys and sells rare discs, Record Collector magazine has originated a set of standards for the condition
of second-hand records, cassettes and CDs. Anyone buying or selling records through the magazine must use our conditions to state whatamount of wear and tear the disc, its sleeve and/or contents have been subject to. The seven standard condition categories, and a descriptionof what each one means, are listed below:
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks
or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such
as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records
advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there
is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging
might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but
displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable
surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on
the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has
noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild
scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of
edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.
FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for
properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump.
The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface
noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly
missing.
BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
