The title of the latest work of Daniel Johnston Daniel Johnston is titled At Home Live. Strange as this is a description that applies to almost 80% of their discography. And it's a nice little, that this recording Johnston feels like a return to his beginnings.

Lo-Fi no more power, work collects 13 songs that are within the least known of his catalog. Only "Silly Love" in Fun, it is possible that in some way and round in their iTunes. The rest while working man may sound new to their ears.

Sonorously sounds like a mockery of the concept of a live album. When the disc opens with "Kool Aid" is heard the constant barking of a dog, as if in some way to replace a public auditorium and at the same time plays with the cliché of the dog barking because of the music Desafinado. Better introduction to the distinctive sound of Johnston does not exist, it is curious that he had not used before.

The rest of the album feels like a trip to the past, completely away from the production of fine Fear Yourself, her latest album. Nostalgic fondly, like myself, feel very grateful.
