The gig itself is an interesting listen - very "percussion-led", which in some cases (Don't Tempt Me, for instance) is particularly effective. Richard's electric guitarwork is also at the fore, as you'd expect. Sound quality is exceptional, with this set containing both early and late shows in their entirity from the pre-FM used by WFHS.

This is a substantial upgrade on the FM versions going around (e.g. More Guitar), lacking as it does irritating radio DJ talk-over and featuring significantly higher sound quality.
