Review title: Essential companion to "Fumbling", but stands on it's own
Product review: I've always been facinated by the creative process; the steps to how artists, musicians, writers, et al, go through to create their works. So admittedly my opinion is biased just based on that. However, this album stands on it's own nearly as well. "Elsewhere" has a great groove to it, the loose version of "Ice Cream" is actually superior to the "Fumbling..." version, and Tom Waits' "Ol' 55" is a refreshing improv, especally for someone known for their pristine studio production. And the CD-Rom program isn't bad either!It's an essential listen for fans of hers to see how the final work developed, but the casual fan will also enjoy it a great deal. In fact, I owned this before I owned "Fumbling..." (although I was very familiar with it). A nice little portrait of the artist at work.
