A compilation of 15 performances originally broadcast on KCRW, a non-commercial radio station in Los Angeles. This is something of a grab bag of favorites on "AAA" radio, with mildly adventurous artists who are not odd enough to offend the taste of adult, mainstream-grounded listeners, like Tori Amos, Michael Penn, Los Lobos, Lindsey Buckingham, Natalie Merchant, Lucinda Williams, and David Wilcox. It isn't all safe, though; Nick Cave, Beck, John Cale, and Brendan Perry certainly aren't that likely to surface on your local commercial AAA outlet, although these are balanced by conservative choices like Mark Isham and Lindsey Buckingham. Much (though not all) of these tracks have an "unplugged" feel, and there's also the rare duet by Evan Dando (of Lemonheads) and Juliana Hatfield. It's not exceptional enough to be recommended for either its rarity or musical value, though certainly some just-left-of-center listeners will find it satisfying. ~ Richie Unterberger, Rovi
