  • The second edition has the bandname spelt wrongly Sisters of Mersey
  • This edition does also come with phantasy track titles and the wrongly spelt name
on the labels (see the track list and the pictures of the labels down below).
  • Where the first edition has a black sticker on the cover back,
giving the day and place of the recording - "Stuttgart, Maxim, November 12, 1984"
the second edition has the very same information just printed on the back of the cover.

also known as In Concert At The Royal Albert Hall

  • More recently, a CD-version of the present bootleg has surfaced in online auctions,
most likely a rip from the LP, see the picture on the right side.
