    Turning well beyond the finished albums, the set reveals the album material as it was coming to life and follows it later to the stage, providing a bounty of tracks too rich to have been pinched off as handfuls of bonus inclusions to the records.

    These six discs certainly illuminate the studio albums they appear on, but their evolutionary processes in studio and on-stage make this set an essential companion to the previous volume.

    This companion volume of archives gives us an opportunity to hear the roads not taken, the hesitations, to feel the jeopardy at each artistic crossroads and experience the risk and wonder of the journey anew. Across seven hours, six discs and 98 tracks, this is an astonishing bounty. [Nov 2024, p.44]
