that is unfortunately a rather mis-leading review - while the music is in fact a pleasure to listen to and Bennett is someone deserving of more attention, the collection only contains two tracks (home demos) featuring Green -
None of the material recorded for Blue Horizon is included (for those tracks pick up "The Complete Blue Horizon Sessions") as that contains the studio recordings with Green, McVie and Fleetwood (three tracks) and two live recordings featuring Green on bass
As to the home demos, three have been released and can be found on many different compilations - I would recommend "Jumping at Shadows" on Castle -

Similar to the Green era Fleetwood Mac, Bennett's best performances were most often captured outside the studio; BBC recordings, home demos and in live performances

There was also a series of discs (which I believe may be out of print now) featuring a vast area of those type of recordings and from which the "Bright Lights, Big City" collection are culled, that are worth tracking down
