This unofficial released CD has taken the artwork directly from the CD released by Virgin's American label, Caroline Blue Plate; CAROL 1832-2. The quality of the paper & printing of the sleeve & CD is much improved compared to earlier unofficial releases from Russia. Photos from the last tour are included on the inside sleeve, together with a review by 'Ned Raggett'.

Tracks 1, 8, 9 & 15 are studio recordings. All other tracks were recorded live November 1982 at Hammersmith Odeon, London.
