This REMASTERED DVD is sourced directly from the original high quality LaserDisc to DVD for the first time ever! Quality is unmatched as it transferred from the long since deleted LaserDisc from OVER THIRTY FOUR years ago.
Background: This concert was first released on VHS in UK, France, South Africa and the USA ONLY. The ONLY LaserDiscs of this classic concert were exclusively released in Japan and USA in 1989.
