Two of the best albums ever made, without question. I love all the tracks on both releases, with the songs 'take a look' and 'staring at the sun' two of the most beautiful tracks I have ever heard. The bonus cuts are nothing great to write home about, except the b-side 'three words' which was omitted from the original 'staring at the sun' album for reasons beyond me, as it was a really strong song. (Better than 'Gresham blues', which was a b-side, but actually made it on the album.)
Highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as World Machine but still above average, October 3, 2003

Running In The Family is the better of these two with the strongest lineup including the Gould brothers. I grew up with songs like "Lessons In Love", the title track and "To Be With You Again" so it's nice to hear them remastered.
Staring At The Sun is a little patchy but still has some strong points like the single "Heaven In Your Hands".
Nice packaging and bonus mixes make this a good buy for a fan or new listener.
