Details and Ratings by Simon Galloway

Source

FM broadcast and audience recording Radio City Music Hall, New York, 26 May 1983 and Ahoyhal, Rotterdam, 5 September 1982 1 - 11: Radio City Music Hall, New York, 26 May 1983. 12 - 18: Ahoyhal, Rotterdam, 5 September 1982

Details

A strange and unnecessary combination of the May 1983 show from New York (from an FM broadcast available in full elsewhere) and an audience recording of the September 1982 show in Rotterdam. Neither are in great sound quality, many songs are repeated and a couple are faded early. Altogether this release is pointless, which is a shame as the full New York show is very good. The sleeve track listing is hopelessly inaccurate.
