Review by Edward Liu:
The quality of the recording is good. There are a few imperfections (very brief buzzing sounds and a couple of pops and cracks) but you hardly notice them. I stress "few" -- these little sounds are very infrequent and occur mostly in the first track; they are not distracting and overall I think it's a very nice recording. For seventy-eight minutes of music, I think it's definitely worth the $20 I paid for it. "Summertime In England" is done in the same style as in Van Morrison: The Concert with Richie Buckley imitating Van in the background. There is also the same transition from "Summertime in England" to "Common One" as in the video version. Great rendition, only drawback is that Buckley can be barely heard.
