5 stars .A different approach to this fabulous but underrated band. I was stunned at the quality of sound and Nick magical voice sometimes almost talking ,other times macthing perfectly with the music.Nick's vocal is more unique than on any studio album. He doesn't speak much between the songs, but his singing is enough to put a spell on the Polish. It contains very good tracks .I love specially 2 A:M a song I think not too many people know and which is completely emotive. Nick Barrett shows here that he is not only the master of the electric guitar but also the acoustic one .To this Clive adds a lot of very sensitive parts on piano and what sounds like a hammond. I would beg them for another acoustically chllenged . Voyager, Alaska , A man of nomadic traits in these acoustic versions allow us to appreciate all the feelings lingering in their great lyrics due to the fantastic changing colours in Nick 's voice . Nick is of course pretty much at ease with the audience and even says a few words in Polish.Nick's empathy with the audience is wonderful and creates a gentle atmosphere.. Great job.
