"To fans of Neil and Mojave 3: Do not neglect this beautiful release. "sailing man" is possibly the most transcendently beautiful moment in Neil's entire recording career....It alone is worth the cost for this small but beautiful collection of songs. Highly recommended."
Great versions

"This is all a beautiful treat for those, like me, who wish "Sleeping on Roads" would go on forever, but I want to single out the version of "See You on Rooftops" on this disc -- it's much more quiet and laid back than the album version, it's just so beautiful... Go ahead and spend some bucks on this disc. If it disappearsyou'll regret having missed it and it's some more of Neil until the next album appears. May it be soon."
Nice addition to the "sleeping on roads" album.

"Very fond of Neil Halstead's songs, I,too, find "sailorman" one of his great songs. Simple, mellow, with fancy guitar picking ( I love the guitar, perfect choice of notes and chords) on top of an organ. Beautiful melody, touching voice, good lyrics, a pleasure.
The alternate version of "see you on rooftops", which presents this nice song in a different light, is exellent ( as is the original).
These two, for me made the EP worthwile, the rest is bonus ;I do like "season" surf style, the other two are interesting ( one is a lo-tech solo live version of "between the bars" which was included later in mojave3 "spoon and rafter")."
