* This was originally released with the first 2 songs badly mismastered. The rest of both discs was fine, pretty standard bootleg quality. Shortly afterwards the bootlegger released a 7" with corrected versions of the tracks. It was supposed to be given away free to people who had already bought the album. (Honour among thieves!) The single came in a plain white sleeve with record labels that were different to the album labels, but in the same style: a comic-book-like picture of a man in a fedora reading a newspaper, orange on one side and white on the other (no type).

* [[Elvis Costello Information Service|ECIS]] reports that copy quality of this audience recording varies from very good mono to poor. The fine playing from EC+A & [[The TKO Horns]] makes up for the shortfall in quality. The version of [[Tears Before Bedtime]] with the Horns is probably quite unusual.
