I just wanted to put those up there since Amazon probably didn't have the list to put it up. Now about the discs themselves, as you can see, they both contain a number of the same songs with a few variations. Any Current 93 fan will be pleased to hear this live recording since they rarely play live, but the mix sounds a little too off for me to give it 5 stars. The recording itself is good, but it seems like the vocals are mixed too far forward at times, and makes the songs sound 'awkward.' All in all a good release, and a good price considering it's 2 discs and the art is excellent."
