Apologies if this has been discussed previously but this particular release has confused me, and I'm guessing that its the artwork that is wrong. This is an 8 disc release in 2 sets of 4 discs. Set 1 is supposed to be 9 July (discs 1 and 2) and 12 July (3-4). Set 2 is supposed to be 11 July (disc 5) and 13 July (discs 6-8).

It seems to clear to me that discs 1 and 2 are actually 13 July - the final night on the Sunday (and also the subject of the official release). But in that case, what show is discs 6-8? And can i be sure the other ones are listed correctly?

Great sounding recordings overall but i would like to know which show is which.

Any help will be gratefully received!

Thanks but I would seriously question whether the info on there is correct as it still states (as per the artwork) that cds 1 and 2 are from 9 July whereas I am certain they are from 13 July - Mick clearly says in this show it is their last night in LA and its the same as the offical release.

Unless i have misread something?!

They guy who sent to Japan the cassettes used for this set wrote here (some time ago) that the Jap guys completely messed up the job. Hence the "9 is 13 and 13 is 9" problem...

Wait...I thought 6 was 9?

Now if 6 turned out to be 9,
I don't mind, I don't mind,

Thanks guys. I guess these tapes have been put out in so many forms its inevitable mistakes are going to get made by those less careful than they should be!

Thanks falo....didnt know there was a dvd attached to it......must track that down somewhere.

On my copy of the 8 disc set, as I said above, discs 1 and 2 are definitely the 13 July (the reference to being the last night being the key clue)....so does that make the discs 6-8 the 9 july show I wonder?

Isn't there an MPEG-4 version of the DVD in the copy in the Vault?
