,
Ch. 1: The Sandworm Cometh and
Ch. 2: Learning, both contain diverse covers ranging from Elton John's "Rocket Man" to Erykah Badu's "Tyrone" to Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit".

They implement little to no studio tricks and present the tracks with the raw, passionate feel that all My Morning Jacket fans have fallen in love with at one time or another. If there ever was a compilation that belonged amongst a group's best studio work, these discs would fit right in there.
