This is the entire show of this historic performance

This is a Limited Edition version with only 385 made

The sound quality on the first three tracks far surpasses the Swingin' Pig version

The two rarer tracks are about of the same quality as the Swingin' Pig
( had Swingin' Pig included these songs that is )
 
The inside of the disc has a funny take on the Harvest label logo under the clear tray

The inside of the sleeve has the picture from the gatefold of Meddle with notes about the
history of the recording, and how it came to appear on this roio

This is a must have, being (imho) one of Floyd's best shows

Very enjoyable listening and a nice collector's piece
