I have 2 different recordings of this show with obvious differences in the recordings. I included both versions in the download since they are both kind of small. This way you can choose 1 or keep both like me.

After having an expanded line up from 1978 to 1982, Nazareth are back to the original 4 man line up from 1983 to 1990. In 1990 founding guitarist Manny Charlton will leave, being replaced by none other than Billy Rankin. Billy played second guitar in Nazareth from 1980 till the end of 1982. Billy Rankin will stay in the band from 1990 to 1994 when current guitarist Jimmy Murrison takes over.
