Transcription

Production and reception

The Unplugged concert was the program's first episode to be broadcast entirely in Spanish and served as her major breakthrough in the U.S. market.[3] The concert is noted to be the "first time a Latin pop act attempted an Unplugged, the first Latina solo act to do so, and the first time a Latino act didn't tape their performance at MTV's studios in Miami."[4]

The concert has received critical acclaim, and is included on lists of best unplugged performances. The performance is listed on Vulture Magazine's “7 Really Good MTV Unplugged Performances” list.[5] Nylon has included “Sombra De Ti” on the list “10 Of The Best ‘MTV Unplugged’ Performances.”[6] Yardbarker ranked the album at number 3 on their list of“20 greatest MTV 'Unplugged' albums.” .[7] ”Remezcla” includes the performance on “The 10 Most Iconic Latin American ‘MTV Unplugged’ Performances.”[8] MTV Unplugged has sold over 1.3 million units worldwide by June 2001.[9]
