Claude says:Jars of Clay recorded this four-volume series in an informal setting at their own Gray Matters label, with minimal editing and accompanying videos of each session — volumes covering 2009's The Long Fall Back to Earth, their 1995 debut, Christmas favorites (including "Drummer Boy" and "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" from their 1995 EP), and deep cuts like "Worlds Apart" and "Boys." You grabbed it in July 2012, a year after release, and played straight through the Christmas volume and the rarities, especially "Boy On a String," which they almost never performed live.
