Natalie Merchant joins the show to discuss both of her appearances on MTV Unplugged back when she was the lead singer of 10,000 Maniacs. Tune in to hear her stories about the band's very early Unplugged in 1990, their massively popular second episode in 1993 (with special guest David Byrne), and how the process of instrumentally reimagining their songs for the show helped influence creative elements of her solo career. Plus, she tells the amazing story of getting to sing "Because the Night" with Patti Smith at an Ann Arbor bar in 1997 following a memorial service for poet Allen Ginsberg.
