Okay, so this source that is posted here — is this the KTS version “SOTD” or “Child’s Balloon”?
Yes this is a third source.
Okay, I think this is another version. I think it is the weakest of the three. I would suggest people go with Child’s Balloon as it has the best vocal sound. My $.02.
But thanks again for all these gems!

Fantastic concert. Probably (one of) the best performances of I Want You, Simple Twist of Fate and Just Like A Woman. Only ever performance of Thief on the Cross. Recommended !

Truly a ‘must have’, boot indeed. I sent this to Mat as I have not seen it posted in recent times, if at all. Those unfamiliar should be aware that this is a proper prof mix-down from multi-track, and not just another dry SBD. This is the reason for the fade downs between trax. Also this is the definitive release of this material. Along with the ex ‘Avignon’ boot also psted today it constitutes the definitive document of this tour period.
Enjoy this classic
