    There's something comforting about hearing this stripped-down version of Iron & Wine again. [No. 118, p.54]

    They’re good enough to rank as a most worthy addition to Iron and Wine’s classic catalogue. In fact, none of the songs in this set offer any musical differences from the fully realized material that make up Iron and Wine’s “official” releases.

    The songs on here are surprisingly strong, such that any of them could have appeared on a proper album at any point in Beam’s decade-plus career. But the collection never sounds like the sum of its parts.
