Recording comments
This is certainly a clean recording per se, but it has very compressed sound with no depth of field, as it was probably done with one microphone. If you want a better audience recording from this tour, get the Savoy 28 Nov 1981... [pablo]

I agree with Pablo's comments, this recording is very clean, ie. little noise, but it seems to suffer from heave noise reduction, which causes a notable distortion, and the sound is extremely flat and dead - the overall result being a quite unexciting recording. [kaspergm]

Me And Virgil is from Spain, 27-Sep-81. Highland havn't tried to hide the fact to their credit.

Interesting incident

Phil makes mistakes on the start of I Know What I Like, it seems that he forget the words (listen in Me And Virgil or Picture About) [Casimiro Baldanza]
