Thanks for the excellent review. Got the box set in the UK and am working my way through it. Exactly as you say it's a leap for fans like me at the proggier end of Wilson fandom but I'm keeping an open mind and it should reward with a few listens. Keep up the good work, love your channel.
Only a surprise for the fans not there from the beginning. I remember seeing them with Japan minus David Sylvian on their first shows. Wilson as always had a pop element to him, that's why his The Future Bites was so disappointing, he'd done it years ago. Live they did stretch out and those early shows certainly influenced their later path, No Man that is. Flowermouth with Fripp and Collins was/is a great album, my favourites though are the last two, not counting the last disco album, that was another disappointment.

Didn't know this was out there.... I've now ordered it. Thank you for the review... Very helpful and made me aware.. Keep on rocking.
Awesome, hope you enjoy it!
