About a year ago, I borrowed the Lauryn Hill Unplugged album (2002) from a friend, and have since started listening to it again. It, quite simply, is one of the greatest albums I have ever heard. Full of personal tales of life on the road and also of her own personal religious redemption, Lauryn weaves a narrative through 22 songs on 2 discs that must be heard to be appreciated. If you’ll recall, Lauryn got famous singing “Killing Me Softly” with the Fugees back in 1996 in what might be the one of the the best covers ever done. But I was a fan of neither her nor the Fugees until I heard this album.
