3.0 out of 5 stars 3 stars for quality, not quantity, October 26, 1999

The tracks on this cd are very good, but I can't justify the price for the very short playing time. As another reviewer has noted, the album is better value. Also check out 'Hi-Scores', a superior 6-track ep.

4.0 out of 5 stars Short and sweet, but lacking credible effort, August 22, 1999

By A Customer

Boards of Canada's full-length album was one I enjoyed immensely. This Peel Session is more an extension of that than anything. I liked the minor additions to Aquarius, and the Olson revamp is quite soothing, yet short. Happy Cycling is a track I had already on the album, but a great addition, no less. Perhaps the excellence of this release could have been helped by the addition of "XYZ", which was also recorded for that session. If you are looking to be blown away, look elsewhere; if you are looking for a couple new (yet familiar) tracks, this is the one for you. A definite "A+" for content, but a "C" for effort.

Don't let inexperienced listeners fool you: The different versions on this CD are indeed very different. ESPECIALLY 'Olsen', which is in a completely different (and more delicious-sounding) key than the version on "Music Has the Right..." This is a wonderful CD single, and has my favorite BoC track so far: Happy Cycling. This song alone is worth the price. Can't wait for their next release!
