Notes
The band had some of their equipment stolen prior to this show.

Live Recording
This was a performance for BBC Radio 1 so the 9 tracks are taken from the radio broadcast. The recording consists of:

'Stanlow'
'Pretending to See the Future'
'Almost'
'Messages'
'Mystereality'
'Julia's Song'
'Statues'
'Electricity'
'Enola Gay'
​
'Enola Gay' is only part recorded as the DJ is talking at the end of the show and the radio station is closing down for the evening.

As of 2023, an improved quality recording of the same tracks has surfaced, that doesn't have the DJ talking.

This show has also been listed as 21st February 1981 but this was the Radio 1 broadcast date rather than the date of the show. The gig aired at 6.30pm on 21st February 1981.

This show also formed part of 'The Bootleg LP'.
