The album was recorded on 5 February 1993 at [[Universal Studios Lot|Universal Studios]], [[Los Angeles, CA]] as part of MTV’sMTV's ''[[MTV "Unplugged"|Unplugged]]'' series. The event aired on television on 5 May of the same year.

Stewart performs some of the classics from his repertoire such as "[[Tonight's the Night (Gonna Be Alright)|Tonight's the Night]]" and "[[Maggie May]]", but also adds some new material such as "Having a Party" and "Highgate Shuffle".
