Very cool. This is their best studio album.

I have to ask: just how much is new here? So far as I can make out, we only get an extra take of Quiet Joys Of Brotherhood - the rest of the additional cuts are available on the last version of L&L, or on the BBC boxset that was released a few months ago:

Oh well - one more version will not hurt

I didn't pick up the box, as post Denny F.C. doesn't really do much for me. I listen to them for Denny, Richard Thompson & Ian Matthews.
