4 stars I adore Big Big Train, but there are a few times that Alberto's voice just gets a little "shouty". Some may like it, but it makes several of the older songs trigger my misophonia, and I just have to request to the band that they leave them out of future setlists entirely. "The Connection Plan" and "A Boy in Darkness", to be specific.

That having been said, this is a great recording. The band is truly comfortable at Cadogan, and it shows. Fantastic sound mixing from Rob Aubrey, fantastic lighting by Yenz Nyholm, and the band is in fine form, with two guitarists, and the full brass section. (both of which the band seem no longer able to afford)

Windrunner | 4/5 |
