Sound Quality: C
Starts off really rough sounding, probably a D, but gradually improves to a reasonable, if distorted standard towards the end.

Performance Quality: C
Ian is awful on some songs, but Reni has now started doing backing vocals, which hides some of his worse moments. The band play through a fast-paced show quite tightly. Very brittle edge to the guitar on all teh songs. This Is The One ends in a shambles, but it always did! Hard to make out the performance quality at times.

Why should I get this bootleg?

The only bootleg available from 1986, contains live versions of Boy On A Pedestal and This Is The One, and a very early version of Sugar Spun Sister, with different guitar in the intro and different lyrics.

Thanks to Will Oddell for compiling the original bootleg guide.
