The _Wow_ CD is a pirate of the Hammersmith Odeon soundtrack, as are four
other bootleg CDs. It's not the best of these five CDs, but it's not that
bad either. Due to the kind of bootleg it just has to be a good sound,
remember that there is a laserdisk from the Hammersmith Odeon video and
that laserdisks have digital sound, though I don't think the laserdisk
was used for the Wow CD.

The recording is definitively not the Amsterdam show but rather the Hammersmith
Odeon one. If you (or anyone else) is interested I can look up the date of
the show.

Bye,

Uli
