Comments:  

Fades into Free N' Easy to open, but doesn't appear this recording was cut other then no encores are included.  This is explained with the medium used to do audience recordings during that era, a bit over 60 minutes could be recorded on most standard tapes of that length.   Starts out to be a good recording that could be remastered to excellent levels, yet once the original cassette was turned over and the files from side B were extracted a major skip jumps in from Lady In Black on, it's really noticeable on the last three songs.  Still this is an outstanding representation of the Innocent Victim tour regardless of the problems and is also the first time tracks from this album appear in our data base.
