Details
The title of the two-disc album is a play on (and tribute to) singer-songwriter Nick Drake's second album, Bryter Layter. In addition to singles, album cuts, and concert favorites, the album contains a number of rarities and previously unreleased tracks, including a studio recording of "Lost On The Moon" (from the international-only version of the Daylight album), "Wishful Thinking" from the Great Expectations soundtrack, an unreleased recording of Joni Mitchell's "Court And Spark", an unreleased remix of "For You", a new live recording of "Home", and "hidden" tracks from Humming (the eight-minute "Foreshadowing") and Daylight ("Chimera").
