Carrie & Lowell was hands down my favorite recording of 2015. Then this year C & L Live came out and I was exstatic. Then to my surprise Sufjan releases The Greatest Gift yet another interpretation of songs from Carrie & Lowell. I remembered I had a cassette player in component stereo and it just seemed right to buy Mixtape on cassette even though I wasn't sure the player still worked. It did and I'm so glad case The Greatest Gift is just that. A treasure. Thanks for the early Xmas gift Sufjan. Much appreciated!
Sufjan Is Our Greatest Gift

His words flow like African Poetry, and his voice sounds of holy matrimony. This is the greatest Christmas present you can give to anyone.
Sufjams for Suf-fans!

Essential listening for any super Sufjan Stevens fan. The outtakes are the best thing about "The Greatest Gift" i.e., Wallowa Lake Monster, The Greatest Gift, The Hidden River of My Life, and City of Roses. The iPhone demos are intimate and the remixes are fun. A great gift for fans!
Sufjan lays bare his soul and muse - spellbinding

Sufjan delves deeper into his heart and family memories on what feels like a companion piece to his outstanding “Carrie and Lowell” release 💙
This provides such an amazing view of his creative process in writing and arranging !
Thank you Sufjan for this precious gift you’ve shared with the world 🙏🏻

I love that Sufjan has really given himself to his fans in this album. On the demo tracks, they are so sparse and emotional. You can hear him almost breaking down as he sings about his experiences with his depression and his mom and stepdad in Oregon.
