In Concert At The Royal Albert Hall - LP Cover (back)

Remarks

• Very good sound quality

• Released in two limited editions, all of which have Merciful Release labels.

• All come in a glossy cover and with black card inner sleeves.

• It is not known, how many copies of each were exactly issued, around 300 seems likely.

• Nonetheless, the original version is far more rare than the second issue.

• Alledgedly, the original edition has record 1 in black vinyl and record 2 in multicoloured vinyl.
  In the picture down right it is, however, clearly detectable, that the black vinyl label is marked "C".

• The second edition consists of two multicoloured vinyls in different colours.
  At least two different versions are known to exist:
  - 1 x mulitcoloured clear/white/red/blue vinyl + 1 x multicoloured yellow/red/green vinyl
  - 1 x multicoloured blue/green vinyl + 1 x multicoloured yellow/red/green vinyl

• Versions with two black vinyls are said to exist as well.
  Evidence for these could not be found as yet.

Source

• Recorded live on 18th of June 1985 at Royal Albert Hall, London, England, UK
  Since this is an audio rip of the Wake video, the songs Gimme Shelter,
  Train and Ghostrider / Louie Louie are missing.
