This is a great picture disc LP. It has Robert, Porl, Andy and... Lol on the front and info on the back. It's a double album set but I only came across Volume II in my vinyl collecting escapades. But all in all it's probably the more interesting of the two. Although I know the Wailing Wall was played at this show. The show itself is very similar to the Hertogenbosch show (Forever boot) from a week earlier. But it's still great to have a few versions of Top rarities, Bananafishbones, Birdmad Girl, The Top, The Caterpillar. It also has the only 84 version of Three Imaginary Boys that I've seen. And of course there's another version of Forever on here. It is totally different than the other 2 84 versions floating around from Curiousity and Hertogenbosch.

On the whole, Robert's voice sounds a little high and for anyone who knows vinyl there's some popping on side 2. But $12 for a 400 count limited edition picture disc with Forever on it is pretty gorgeous.

The gems on this one are Wailing Wall and The Empty World, a couple more of the Top semi-rarities. As the previous reviewer stated about Vol. 2, Bob's voice seems a tad high and the quality is so-so, but this is a GREAT addition to anyone's collection...Vol. 1 is also limeted to 400, supposedly. I don't have Volume Two..if anyone out there has it and would like to sell it, PLEASE contact me.

weird... the version I have is just on black vinyl (not pic disc) and came with both records included... the pressing is pretty good and it's one of the more interesting shows I've heard. Certainly the best of all the boots from The Top tour that I've got (well... with the exception of the Live In Japan video, but that's in a different class)...
