Comments: The next best thing to being there - a great audience recording! It's like being there, the show is tripod shot, nice and steady, and captures the stage lighting and the "feel" of the performance, in a way that a professional multi-camera recording can't. Filmed at the second to last performance of the 1988 North American tour, the band was in top form and having a lot of fun. Eric and Mark Knopfler trade some tasty solos on "Badge", and MK contributes some beautiful acoustic lead work while Nathan East sings a great version of "Can't Find My Way Home". Things really heat up with an incendiary performance of "Same Old Blues", when Eric and Nathan swap some licks, and Nathan plays an extended, awesome solo. Alan Alark tosses in an earthshaking solo during the "Cocaine". Very fun to watch. Sourced from the master copy. This show has also been transferred to CD-R as well as VideoCD.
