This is a reissue of a rare title from a handmade label by collectors for collectors, which was distributed only in very limited quantities. While copies circulate quickly these days, this item is an officially licensed reissue from the master tapes.

This album features a remastered high-quality audience recording of a live performance from 2010, the year after the release of his masterpiece solo album, "Get Lucky." It includes traditional-sounding tracks, including the famous "Border River" from the same album. And of course, he delivers a superb performance of Dire Straits' killer tune, "Sultan." His trademark is the fluid phrases he plays, almost overlapping his own vocals, and the tone of his Stratocaster.
