MTV Unplugged just celebrated an anniversary, so what better time to argue about which is the all-time greatest Unplugged set.

 

Since we’re ROCK 92.9, we’ll be focusing on rock acts: no disrespect to LL Cool J, Lauren Hill, and Babyface, who all had memorable performances back in the day. I even toyed with leaving Nirvana off the list and working the “Best-Unplugged-that’s-not-Nirvana” angle. But in the end, I decided to take the ten best ROCK sets and let you decide who sits atop the list.

 

You can vote below. And if you need a refresher on any of the performances, scroll down a little further before you cast your vote.
