Notes: The cover art suggests that this show was recorded "On the first european tour of '79", but the majority was taken from a radio broadcast recorded in Belgium on 1981. Sourced for CD release from LP from vinyl, has some crackles and pops. Still, it's an important part of history from the "Golden Era" of silver CD bootlegs, and to me as well as it was the first Dire Straits ROIO CD I ever obtained. * t09-t10 Cologne, Germany - February 17, 1979. <-(Info taken from geetarz.org).
