Notes

A very good audience recording. Clear and direct sounding, with very little crowd noise. Pimpf is missing the beginning, and Black Celebration is missing the first few seconds due to master tape flip. Bass can be a bit distorted at times, and treble can be on the shrill side.

Note that an extended version of People Are People was performed, adding an extended middle break. This version was performed for the first seven concerts of the tour through 1987-10-30 Milan, after which the "regular" shorter version is played for the entire tour, with one exception. This extended version is played only once more on the second of three nights in Paris on 1987-11-17.

Many thanks to Falko for generously lending me this tape to archive, and thanks to Elly Apfel for recording this concert.
