Recorded in London on October 4, 1980, this double CD presents 20 tracks dominated by
McLean originals, with occasional oldies covers of the likes of
Bobby Darin,
Buddy Holly, and
Roy Orbison. It's a sturdily executed set, some tracks embellished by a string section. Partially due to its length, it's an extraneous release, serious
McLean fans being the target audience. ~ Richie Unterberger
