ロッド・スチュワートの未発表曲、未発表テイクだけで構成された63曲入り4枚組のボックスセット。ディスク4にトレヴァー・ホーンがプロデュースを担当した"Once In A Blue Moon"(1993)期のセッションを収録。"Once In A Blue Moon"はお蔵入りとなったカバー集アルバムで、後に"Lead Vocalist"(1993)にレコーディングされた約半分の楽曲が収録されている。ホーンが大部分をプロデュースした"A Spanner In The Works"(1995)期の音源も収録されているが今回収録のセッションにはホーンは無関係な模様。ホーン・プロデュースではほかに1992年にピンク・フロイドのデヴィッド・ギルモアとレッド・ツェッペリンのジョン・ポール・ジョーンズを招いて録音された"In a Broken Dream"のリメイクを収録している。邦題は「ロッド・スチュワート・セッションズ」。
