Additional comments
Great compilation CD. Taken from the original pressed bootleg "Bijou". Featuring a wide variaty of Dire Straits tours and a very good recording of the last concert of The Notting Hillbillies tour from 1990. All songs are taken from soundboard recordings, good to very good sound quality.
