Track 1 is the TV version known e. g. from the LP "Mick Taylor we Thank You".
Tracks 2-9 is the complete classic bootleg LP "The Stars In The Sky They Never Lie" but in best possible quality and without any crackles (finally!!).
Tracks 10-14 are from the other Brussels show than the well known Brussels recordings.

There is some kind of mastering mistake: 'All Down The Line' is faded out and then comes again completely together with 'Rip This Joint' which has no track separation. And unfortunately 'Tumbling Dice' is missing once again... These tracks (and track 15) are also on "Reflections Of A Stone Alone" and "Back To The Graveyard", the later contains also 'Tumbling Dice'. Track 15 is also a TV broadcast. Even if for the Brussels tracks "Back To The Graveyard" is still a must to have, this release can be highly recommended since the classic "The Stars In They Never Lie" tracks are finally available in best possible quality here.
