Released in 1991, Wicked Game is not a greatest-hits collection, nor is it a rarities collection. It concentrates on a brief period of Chris Isaak's career (the late '80s – early '90s), overlooks a lot of hits, and contains oddities like a cover of "Heart Full of Soul" and an instrumental of "Wicked Game." …

The show was met with surprisingly high acclaim and viewership, and everyone and their brother signed up for an "acoustic" session. Very Best of MTV Unplugged compiles some of the series most lauded moments, most notably Eric Clapton's smash performance of "Tears in Heaven."…

Although he shared the same rockabilly roots as Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, and Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison went on to pioneer an entirely different brand of country/pop-based rock & roll in the early '60s.
