Here, somewhat belatedly, is the first European show, and arguably the first show of the tour proper.

I was there and it was an amazing show, real fun, with a very eager audience.

The title is a reference to the correct pronunciation of “McGrath”. He explains how he was chastised about this in the intro, which is at the end of the track with ‘My Oklahoma Home’. The pronunciation regressed on the subsequent BBC concert, so while the setlist may not be unique, this show may be only one with him getting that surname right!

The sound quality is ok, but could do with some improvement. Rather than fiddle with it, I have left this exactly as on the CD-Rs, so someone with better software and mixing skills will have an untainted source. If someone would like to do a remix, here are some areas in need of attention:

  • The volume level is low and need normalising.
  • May need more bass.
  • There is some hiss on ‘s’ sounds, I noticed this on ‘My City of Ruins’

4 official tracks omitted

per vanomatic, there are 4 of these tracks which have been officially released and so they have been omitted from this torrent:
Ain’t that loving you baby,
That’s Life,
Moondance, and
Satisfied.

lineage: got these flacs from a vantrades top 12 show vine flac dvd. they decoded without errors a few minutes ago.

comments: still loads of great stuff here even w/o the 4 missing tracks. enjoy!!!
info from hayward database files:

This 2-CD set includes the complete FM broadcast from The Point Theatre, Dublin on December 17th, 1995
Notes:
Re-release notes: “The original numbered series of this recording has been depleted”
The quality is reported to be absolutely stunning – better than some of Van’s commercial live records. It’s a limited edition set – copies appear to be individually numbered – limited run of 250. It has a total running time of just under two hours. Sound really is sensational. The package is described as ‘classy’.
Review by Niall Connors:
Given that the 17.Dec.95 show from The Point Depot in dear, dirty Dublin was captured four years back on The Night Was Full Of Space boot, it was noteworthy how much “press” the soon-to-be-circulated From Dublin Up To Sandy Row received in the Van-List circles.
Well, the hype was worth it. While the sound on NWFOS is solid, the sound on FDUTSR is flawless; in my opinion, it is better than on the live commercial release, A Night In San Francisco.
This is the third Van show of which I am aware that the Tonight Only label has released, and they seem to know they had something special here. A couple of blurbs from the very sharp artwork: “Tonight Only is proud to present the definitive recording of one of the definitive Van Morrison concerts of the 1990’s . . . .The pristine recording you hold in your hands is released with a very limited pressing of just 250 copies, each one numbered to enhance its value as a rare record of a spectacular concert at Dublin’s Point Depot.”
The setlist speaks for itself, and Van’s performance is simply “on”; even “Moondance” works! But the value of this recording is the sound, which has a richness and complexity, as well as subtlety, that TNWFOS lacks. Guy Barker’s sax solo on “That’s Life” absolutely shimmers, and one can literally feel Alec Dankworth’s fingers on the up-right bass during “Why Must I Always Explain”.
I have no affiliation with Tonight Only, so I can say without influence that this is a classic boot.

contrast clause: this is different from the Moontunes version shared here last September by eddiethecat entitled ‘The Night was Full of Space’.
this is a different mix, sources i don’t know about.
uploaders lineage: vantrades ‘top 12 VM shows’ data vine dvd copy > harddrive > upload flacs decoded without error. this ‘Dublin Up To Sandy Row’ had the most votes for best boot in that 2007 poll. i was hoping for a documented silver disk rip upload to appear, but since it hasn’t yet, i will offer this. files are dated 04/22/2007, just made a ffp with traders little helper.. no text file or lineage came on the dvd and i don’t remember if that info was shared at vantrades. this rip came with what i assume is the first release front cover artwork, if the representation from the hayward website is accurate. The info below is from their page. if you haven’t already, enjoy!
