fent99 Posted November 7, 2012 Report Posted November 7, 2012 (edited) Bought this album on a lovely thick piece of (possibly original) Barclay vinyl the other day and been enjoying it a lot. Only have a compilation of Brel and since it was in a charity shop and the vinyl looked clean and the gatefold sleeve (with a wee extra flap) was cool it seemed like a good deal... Anyhow there's not a lot of info with it and the cd reissues seem a bit different. I was a bit surprised that only side 1 was live. Is the cd reissue with the 61 and 64 performances on 2 discs all live? I take it the big box has the whole gig? Any knowledgable fans out there straighten me out? I'd buy the whole gig if thats what is there since I really like the live side! Maybe there is a bit more info online (or maybe its in french?) Wikipedia doesn't help much...

brownie Posted November 7, 2012 Report Posted November 7, 2012 Don't know about the various versions of this release. The LP had a stunning version of 'Amsterdam'. Not sure if this is the same Olympia 1964 interpretation: Quote
