One disc I had over the Christmas Holidays was this hour or so long live recording of Duran Duran at the peak of their fame in 1982 at the Hammersmith Odeon, London which was first issued in full several yeas back as a audio cd included in the DVD of the concert.
Today soundtrack recordings like this tend to be dismissed a bit for the whole feel of seeing and hearing the show in surround sound but in 1982 we listened to recordings either off the radio from the likes of Radio One or bootlegs but this is a well played set.
It is split between four sides to help keep the best sound quality and comes in a gatefold sleeve.
From this concert Make Me Smile (Come Up and See Me), a cover of the Steve Harley song was featured as the b side to The Reflex (Remix) in April 1984.
