"So many of these songs sound better here because many of Leonard's studio works suffer from poor to average production. This album just sounds so good and the songs really take on a life of their own. The arrangements are superb. Favorite tracks "Dance Me To The End Of Love", "The Future", "Ain't..." [+] Reply
"This album really takes you on a ride right from the start and really shocked me when I first heard it.

"King Rat is fantastic. Maybe 2 other good songs then......meh. But hey it's only an outtakes album" Reply
