Members of Yellow Magic Orhestra (YMO) join the band near the end of the set on various songs. Ryuichi Sakamoto is on keyboards.

As with nearly all Sylvian related boots before 2001, lineage is unknown. The tracks on tape are superior but the tape was missing the three tracks that had to be added in from vinyl. Taking Islands in Africa seems to have been a little warped on the LP it was taken from, the other two tracks blend in surprisingly well.

  1. Great recording from a wonderful band, anymore? Looking for a number of gigs including the Hong Kong one of the same year. Great website.
