Fink: Wheels Turn Beneath My Feet (selected live performances)
Just pre-ordered the new version capturing the last 10 years of touring.

Thinking I should have the first one too, Im now disciplined to look on the shelves before ordering and chuffed to find I already have it. Can’t recall listening to it much, probably as it’s stored on its end. It’s really good but I prefer IIUII as a collection of great versions.

The booklet has great content & photos, reaffirms my preference for physical media.
