A good live album. Pretty damn good set list as well, though it could have been a little longer (I am used to 2-disc live albums these days so that's completely my fault) but I can't really fault the variety. Despite the minor audio problem stated before, it's really great to have "Come Together" on here as it shows he's not too bitter about the Beatles days and will perform songs by his old group. I'd say the best performances here are "Woman is the Nigger of the World" (nice spiel about this getting banned and a brief history on how Yoko inspired him to write it as well), "Instant Karma" and "Cold Turkey". Really, I like the more rocking songs here live as, though it's a great song, "Imagine" feels a bit out of place. This was before acoustic sets and all that jazz so it's understandble, however.

Overall, nothing worth faulting. The band does a great performance on all of the tracks, John's vocals are generally good and, as said, the set list covers most bases. I would have liked to have seen "Jealous Guy" on here. We mainly get rockers and another heart-wrenching ballad would have balanced it a little more. If you're a Lennon fan, can't see any reason not to pick this up.

 (EXCERPT FROM AN ANONYMOUS ONLINE REVIEW)

The PROMOTIONAL, RADIO STATION-, AUDITION OR DEMONSTRATION COPIES AND RELEASES (such as the one we have here) were often distributed among the radio stations before the record was released to the public, sometimes as much as four months ahead. These records are generally considered to be the "first among equals", which is to say the VERY FIRST generation and the VERY FIRST pressings of the particular title; a PROTOTYPE and the earliest known official pressing of the record.

·       CONDITION:

·       RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)          THE ALBUM IS STILL FACTORY SEALED AND IS BELIEVED TO BE PERFECTLY MINT. Please note: sealed items are assumed to be mint and are sold as-is, as we have no way of inspecting them. For our policy on still sealed records ►click here (PLEASE READ BEFORE PLACING A BID).

(b)          The record is guaranteed to come in its original, custom, inner sleeve, which is UNIQUE to this album.

(c)             The record is  apparently pressed on a RELATIVELY  thick, inflexible vinyl. This is NOT a thin, flimsy ('dynaflex' type),  vinyl, but not the thickest, most rigid vinyl, either.

(d)          Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

·       THE COVER

COVER IS NEAR MINT, STILL SEALED AND COVERED IN ITS ORIGINAL ►SHRINK WRAP  (A  PIECE OF SHRINK WRAP IS MISSING)

(PLEASE NOTE: THE SHRINK WRAP HAS SEPARATED ALONG ABOUT 30% OF THE OPENING SIDE, BUT THE ALBUM IS STILL VISIBLY SEALED)

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

-         The cover has a faint razor-like line (cut) on the cover, as if someone attempted to cut away the shrink wrap with a razor, but inadvertently left the mark on the cover as well (ALL PROMO COVERS HAVE THIS BIRTH MARK). The paper slick is intact and no part is missing, but the razor line is visible.

-         Minor shelf wear noted on the seams (nothing significant)

-         Cover has a few tiny wrinkles along the seams (BARELY VISIBLE)

-         Cover has two corners slightly dinged (BARELY VISIBLE)

NO OTHER VISIBLE FLAWS OR IMPERFECTIONS ON THE  COVER
