MTV Unplugged
Mariah Carey
Kaufman Astoria Studios, Queens, NY
Recorded the same day as Pearl Jam at Kaufman Astoria, this performance silenced critics who'd questioned whether Mariah Carey could deliver live what she did in the studio. Her vocal range proved no studio illusion, and her impromptu cover of the Jackson 5's "I'll Be There" became her sixth #1 single.
