The last track, You Were There, has an audience source spliced in for the final two minutes. Discs 1 and 3 include the first minute of Old Love after Change The World. Discs 2 and 4 start off with a complete version of Old Love, it just appears to be strange editing at the end of discs 1 and 3. (B.F. / R.B.)
Numbered limited edition in slipcase with 3 inserts, one of which features a poster for a Wembley Stadium Rolling Stones concert on the back (?!). These are most definitely soundboard sets, and not from hearing devices. Absolutely superb ! (P.W. / R.B.)

"My Father's Eyes" begins abruptly in the second verse (with some very out-of-tune
singing from
Mr. Clapton!), there is significant noise on "Have You Ever Loved A Woman," and
the volume
is uneven on "I Shot the Sheriff."   I have listed it as a soundboard, but there are
those who
believe that it is an excellent audience recording.  I am going with the majority view, but as in
many cases, I think that the minority could be correct.  Either way the sound is very good, and the
orchestra is well recorded.  (R.B.)
