LP vinyl double album, bought new in the late 1980s. Catalog #C1-91463.

This is a live album, capturing the Fish era of the band, before he left and was replaced by Steve Hogarth. It features songs from all four main albums featuring Fish: Script for a Jester's Tear, Fugazi, Misplaced Childhood, and Clutching at Straws.

This is a VERY RARE item -- this U.S. pressing was issued in very limited numbers.

Spelling error on label. Cover reads 'The Thieving Magpie', in single quotes. On the label, the final quote was turned into an accent mark on the 'e'.
