{"product_id":"mpls-unplugged-soul-asylum","title":"Mpls Unplugged - Soul Asylum","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDouble vinyl LP pressing. MPLS Unplugged celebrates the 30th anniversary of the band's legendary MTV Unplugged performance in 1993, recorded live nearly 30 years later to the day at the State Theatre in Minneapolis on April 20, 2023. For the first time in decades, the band is captured stripped back and unplugged-echoing the spirit of their original MTV Unplugged session in 1993-while remaining deeply layered, expansive in feel, and emotionally resonant. Frontman Dave Pirner, is joined by guitarist Ryan Smith, bassist Jeremy Tapparo and drummer Michael Bland. Also returning is Ivan Neville on keys, alongside STRINGenius string quartet and the Robert Robinson gospel singers, honoring the lineup of the original 1993 session while modernizing the acoustic arrangements. Neville's connection to the band dates back to that original Unplugged session, where, as Pirner recalls, \"he was the obvious choice... pretty magical-it just felt right.\" The set also digs deep into the band's catalog and celebrates Soul Asylum's electric and enduring live show, featuring two songs, \"Farmer John\" and \"What Will Become of Me, \" that have been played live over the years but never recorded or officially released. Their inclusion here gives fans a rare, fully realized take on songs that have only lived onstage, and an authentic glimpse into the singular energy of a Soul Asylum concert. More than four decades in, Soul Asylum continues to evolve while staying rooted in the emotional directness that first defined them, touring globally, playing over 100 shows a year and continuing to reach both longtime fans and new listeners.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"discnum\"\u003e- Disc 1 -\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e1\u003c\/span\u003e The Storm Is Passing Over\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e2\u003c\/span\u003e Somebody to Shove\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e3\u003c\/span\u003e Crazy Mixed Up World\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e4\u003c\/span\u003e Without a Trace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"discnum\"\u003e- Disc 2 -\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e1\u003c\/span\u003e Lately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e2\u003c\/span\u003e Misery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e3\u003c\/span\u003e Never Really Been\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e4\u003c\/span\u003e Stand Up and Be Strong\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"discnum\"\u003e- Disc 3 -\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e1\u003c\/span\u003e Homesick\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e2\u003c\/span\u003e Black Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e3\u003c\/span\u003e If I Told You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e4\u003c\/span\u003e The Sun Maid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"discnum\"\u003e- Disc 4 -\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e1\u003c\/span\u003e New World\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e2\u003c\/span\u003e Eyes of a Child\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e3\u003c\/span\u003e Made to Be Broken\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Soul Asylum","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48270503215330,"sku":"820200301420","price":40.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0440\/9855\/1967\/files\/a_703be1c9-2e08-4bde-a091-6cdc5eda1c87.jpg?v=1787777332","url":"https:\/\/rebrecordsmd.com\/products\/mpls-unplugged-soul-asylum","provider":"REB Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
