Average Rating: 
Rating: - a semi-superfluous release
I am approaching this review from the perspective a Winger fan and not that of a critic per se. That said, I must admit to being unimpressed with this release.
It appears yet another example of an artist re-recording songs (quasi-demo, unplugged versions...you know the type, acoustic guitar, add a touch of piano for ambiance, and throw in a measure or two of percussion...yes, the ever-dreaded bongo accompaniment!) that have been previously released, and sound far superior in their original ...

Rating: - Underrated, What A Shame
Down Incognito is Kip Winger running through a few of his best tunes. Vocally he is as always brilliant. I do not understand why the band always got panned. The title track is a fantastic acoustic reading of one if not the best Winger tune they released. As a few of the songs are not Winger but Kip solo songs a few favorites are missing but what is included doesn't disappoint at all. If you had a passing fancy with the band then I recomment listening to this album. Nice music for a relaxing evening ... Read More
Rating: - Kip Winger unplugged
I heard kip performing Miles Away with just his acoustic guitar on a local radio station and he sounded great so when I heard about this cd I knew I had to have it. Kip really brings new life to all these songs that were already great to start off with. When you hear them all stripped down without all the loud guitars and pounding drums you really get a fill for what Kip Winger the Singer/Song writer is all about, it truly is an Amazing CD to listen to
Rating: - WAY UNDERRATED!!
Any one who knows anything about music would IGNORE the critics regarding anything negative about Kip Winger. They obviously don't play. Kip is a hugely talented musician. The early Winger stuff was great, but PULL is a rock masterpiece. This album is also a "must have". The new take on these songs is brilliant. Kip never ceases to amaze. Without question one of the most underrated rock artists playing today. Buy this album, you won't regret it.
Rating: - Beautiful
I don't usually write a review immediately after buying a product. But this one is different. What I want to say is, Go buy this album. Kip is awesome. An all-around great musician.
This album is live, with songs from Kip's first solo album, plus Winger tunes. High points are Miles Away, Under One Condition, Ez Come Ez Go, and Headed for a Heartbreak.
Note: Kip's voice has changed; it's not as raspy and untamed. Instead, it's polished with all the rough edges filed down. At ... Read More
