I was so pleased to finally get this cd from Damien as I have been a HUGE fan for well over three years!! I have aquired a lot of songs of his that are live but this album's sound quality is amazing and really captures the atmosphere and beauty of his singing. Although it is only 8 songs there is a really nice mix of popular and lesser known ones and I think Lisa adds a lot of variety and is simply compelling to listen to. Its a great addition to my alarmingly large collection of Damien Rice songs and is a must-have for any fan- especially if you have seen him live and want to recapture your experience (I know I do!!)

I love the songs of Damien Rice, especially when Lisa Hannigan is singing with him and I was really looking forward to this. However, I had major problems with two copies of this CD. I only ever listen to music via my laptop - in fact listening to music this way is so convenient that I no longer have a home stereo. I always buy whatever CD takes my fancy, load it onto my laptop for home and keep the original for playing in my car. I loaded the first copy of this CD onto my laptop and found that the sound was overdubbed with loud static, and was impossible to listen to. My first thought was that it was faulty, so I contacted Amazon who immediately sent a replacement copy. Unfortunately that CD was exactly the same, with loud, rasping static over the music. I tried the CD on two laptops, both with problems, and then on my car CD player where it played perfectly. I can only assume that for some reason these CD's have been manufactured so that they can't be put onto a computer in case they are copied or shared, which I have never done and am not interested in doing. This is the first time this has happened to me, and other CD's I have put onto my laptop since have played without a problem. I think Amazon are looking into this, (fab customer service as ever from Amazon)but in honesty so many of us listen to our music via laptops / computers that I think we should be told if we can't play a CD in this way. I will be downloading an MP3 of this album onto my laptop, but it's spoilt it for me in a way. I'd be really interested if this has happened to anyone else - maybe you could let us all know in a review....?

This release is a big disappointment as there are only 8 songs on the album and at least two of them are sung exclusively by Lisa Hannigan. Where is the rest of the concert and for that matter, where is the live DVD in DTS/PCM sound quality? This release falls well below expectations for an international artist and looks to me to be a quick cash in for Christmas.
