The cover is a picture looking down a bleak hallway at a bright doorway. Kind of a bomb shelter looking place. The cover opens up and inside has the same picture in red. The inside cover has a paragraph about the history of the band. This is a soundboard recording. This disk has a great sound, there is no audience noise. Bob speaks, but is barely audible between songs. Very clear, a great recording of a great show.

This is a great bootleg that I recommend if you are looking for live songs from the "Head" tour. Contrary to the fact that the IMO said that there was no croud noise, there is. But just a little. It does not interfere with the music. It is one of the best bootleg recordings I have ever heard. It sounds like an official release.

This is a great boot BUT, buyers beware!!! This is the same show as THE WALK! There is no way that this was done in 1985. This is really the rest of the show from THE WALK boot, also listed on this boot page! Still a great disc and great quallity- worth buying

Great one but not only the same as the walk but also the same as torture and as difficult to cure!! Though some songs aree not the same.

Submitted by:(nic) The last half of the cd, from The Walk to Charlotte sometimes is the same as in Torture.

But actually I think the sound quality in Torture is slightly better.

Possibly the clearest recording of one to The Cure's greatest albums. Full of Robert's between-song muddling, yet vocals and music are distinct.
