If you're a Nik fan, you probably already have most of what's on this CD except for 4 or 5 tunes. The new songs are superb as were his last 2 CDs - To Be Frank and 15 Minutes. He's one of the best song writers of our time, and the quality of the production that goes into the songs can't be beat. You can get the CD for less if you order from Amazon.co.uk. Even with the exchange rate and shipping charge it cost me about $21 instead of the $40 if ordered from this US site.

Any fan of Nik will want this. Most of his older catalog is out of print so there are a few songs I had not heard before. The 4 new songs are great songs as only Nik could do them. It will also be recommended for anyone that has not heard Nik. A lot of good positive songs. I'll also add that both Niks previous CDs, 15 'minutes' and 'To Be Frank' are fantastic as well. Buy them!

As some of his albums are out of print, it was nice to see some songs that are harder to find, like "Elisabeth's Eyes." And there's some new stuff on here as well. "Cloud Nine" is a new Nik favorite of mine. Excellent song! And after a hard day, "Times Like These" is a very soothing song. If you're a Nik fan, you'll enjoy the content.
