Why it stays in rotation

I had never heard this album before. It was playing in the Lisbon shop and I liked it enough to buy it there and then. It cost me less than five euros, which still feels like a steal. The live sound is my favourite part because you can hear the audience and feel the room around the music. I play it when I have people over, when I am coding or when I am just chilling at home.
