The material includes some of Ayers' strongest early material, such as "Lady Rachel," "May I," "Clarence in Wonderland," and "Why Are We Sleeping?." The combination of prog-rock and orchestration sometimes unexpectedly echoes Pink Floyd's Atom Heart Mother. On some parts of "Why Are We Sleeping?" you can hear Oldfield fooling around with ideas that would resurface on his own Tubular Bells.
The sound is good but, unfortunately, the balance between the orchestral instruments and the rock ones is not always optimum, and the vocals are sometimes under-recorded. The second disc is divided between broadcasts from 1975 and 1976 (with Zoot Money on keyboards throughout). It isn't as inspired as the companion CD, either in terms of material or performance.
As good-natured material interpreted nonchalantly, it falls between prog-rock and pub-rock, as odd as that combination sounds, highlighted by the Ayers staple "Stranger in Blue Suede Shoes." It is a worthwhile supplement to the Ayers library for his fans, particularly the first disc, as it shows dimensions to his arrangements that were not always evident on the studio recordings.
