That was my first Mark Knopfler & Dire Straits CD. Unfortunately, I lost it or gave it away to somebody without it returning back to me. I also gave away my first guitar.

I wonder if it was the 2nd disc on this one that made me start looking for bootlegs. I might have downloaded the odd live track from WinMX before that, but I suspect not.

Many thanks, JF.   I almost played the live CD to death, but I always wished that I could hear the rest of the concert, especially TR which is excellent.   BIA from this concert has always been one of my favourite versions.   :)
