 worth it for the bonus CD Nov 10, 2009
Live is such a difference experience, get this with the bonus CD, its well worth it. I haven't gotten to the DVD or 3 disc. And truthfully, I haven't even listened to the entire strict joy CD. Just the bonus, I love it live. It is a shame it doesn't contain the full 20 song set, but its still worth it if only for the version of 'What happens when the heart just stops'
Wonderful new album Nov 10, 2009
Love the new album! This "limited deluxe version" is a great deal and I'm thrilled with it.
Must buy for any Swell Season fan.

A "Live" Band Nov 04, 2009
The cd simply doesnt do the band justice. They are something to be experienced "live". I just saw them in MIlwaukee on Nov. 1st. They were nothing short of spectacular. Of all the live shows I've seen,(I've seen my share), Iwould say that this ranks as the best. You have to experience the power of Glen's voice, and the subtleness of Mar's for yourself. A lot is lost in the translation to cd. I was especially touched when Mar started play "O Holy Night" on the piano, and then singing about half the song through with her incredible voice. The Frames are simply fantastic. The bass shook your bones, the drumming was spot on for the music, the violin solos masterful. Glen is the John Lennon of our generation. His songwriting talent, guitar mastery, vocal talent, and presence remind me very much of him. He has that who gives a ***k attitude. Someone interrupted him when he was talking, and he got very mad! He's a man who loves his music and won't take anycrap from nobody. You have to admire him for that. I enjoyed the fact that both the live cd and dvd were recorded in MIlw. at The Riverside. Marketa commented on how lovely a city Milwaukee was. She even woke early in order to walk by the river and Lake Michigan. These 2 belong together. And this cd clearly shows that.
 Six missing songs on bonus CD Oct 31, 2009
Looks like Amazon has fixed the mistake on the track list of the bonus CD. Now shows 14 songs, not 20. Anyone who purchased it when the 20 was listed may want to call customer service and request credit to buy mp3s. I got a credit for 6 songs and was able to buy all but Blue Shoes in mp3 form.
Great duo & album! Oct 30, 2009
I've enjoyed this duo's music since I saw Once and this album continues the tradition.
However, as has been mentioned in prior comments, this "Limited Deluxe" Edition does not contain the same live CD as the "Deluxe" edition. It is short six songs and is from the same concert as the included DVD. However, the DVD makes this version worth getting as they are excellent to watch live (the Jr HS choir singing along to the Pixies' "Gigantic" is something special).
