B-sides and rarities compilation from Austin-via-Florida-based Southern Gothic/ indie folk songwriter Sam Beam. Disc 1 is lower-fidelity (more like Creek Drank the Cradle) than the 2nd (more like Shepard's Dog), in general. Disc 2 has more instrumentation, in general. Some absolute gems and a few duds, but overall really high quality.
