In the early '90s, Rod Stewart did a popular early '90s thing to do: he released a live album taken from his 'Unplugged' session for MTV. It worked -- the album ('Unplugged ... and Seated') peaked at No. 2 and yielded several hit singles in 1993. But releasing that album meant shelving some exciting tracks Stewart recorded a year earlier, including a remake of 'In a Broken Dream" (which Stewart originally sang for the group Python Lee Jackson in 1969).Stewart recorded at least one other version of the song, but this remake of the remake is remarkable for a significant reason: It features Pink Floyd's David Gilmour on guitar, Led Zeppelin's John Paul Jones on organ and additional instrumentation from notable rockers Nick Lowe and Pete Thomas. Sounds like an all-star band that was almost in the making ... not that Rod Stewart would know anything about all-star bands or anything.
This red-carpet version of the track will finally resurface in September, on the new 4-disc archival box set, 'The Rod Stewart Sessions 1971-1998.' But first, it's available as a song exclusive right here at Spinner.
