Notes

Feb 14 is the broadcast date per 120minutes.org. Performances would have been taped somewhat before.

Robyn guest-hosts 120 Minutes; he introduced videos (including the premiere airing of "Driving Aloud (Radio Storm)" and performed some songs. Viewers at the time commented that this was the only time they saw the Driving Aloud video played on MTV, but it does look to have been played on three subsequent episodes in 1993.

"The Wreck of the Arthur Lee" was apparently featured on an MTV promo that collects songs from 120 minutes, so we speculate the song may have been played at this appearance and not aired.

Set List

  1. Arms of Love
  2. The Yip Song
  3. untitled instrumental jam Improvised played over the end credits
  4. Serpent at the Gates of Wisdom Seems to have been filmed at the same time but may not have been broadcast originally
