"If you own "The Wild Side of Live" Japanese bootleg then you probably don't really need this because the sound's the same only louder. But if,like me, you can't get enough of unreleased Mott the Hoople tracks,pics and stories then it's definitely worth it. I guess then the bootleg really isn't a bootleg since they used the same Overend Watts mastertape? Strange how these things sneak out."

Released at last !

"People complain when you can't buy known archive recordings ,then complain that the sound is not of 2009 standard. That is the whole point of this release.

Previously unreleased live show from the original line-up of Mott The Hoople recorded in July 1970 during the band's first US tour. Also included in this live collection are four tracks recorded at the Fillmore West during Mott The Hoople's second US tour in June 1971. Bonus track is 'The Wreck Of The Liberty Belle' - recorded by the band at Olympic Studios in London in November 1969. Remastered with 24 page sleeve notes. Angel Air. 2006.
