Innovative British synth-pop and blues-soul singer Alison Moyet follows up her well-received 2013 studio album The Minutes with her first-ever full-length live album, recorded on her 2013-14 tour. It’s thrilling to hear her transform her former band’s catalog, with powerful performances of Yaz’s “Winter Kills,” “Only You,” and their biggest U.S. hit, “Situation.” Six cuts here are from The Minutes, with the single “When I Was Your Girl” taking on greater energy and life. John Garden and Sean McGhee arrange the material, with Guy Sigsworth and Chris Elms assisting on the recent tracks.
