It was a pleasure to work with you all, guys.

and special thanks go to Gary Taylor for trusting me on this project,

cheers everyone!

and for the rest of the Queenzoners, I really hope you enjoy this one.

Same here! It was really fun to work with so many people dedicated to this! Gary Taylor deserves so much credit!

The Youtube description for this, is VERY long and obnoxious!

A big thank you to you guys too, without you I would never of got this little project off the ground. Special thanks to you Inu who took over the show and got everything organised. You are all experts in your field. A special mention to Ale here, who had to endure my constant changes and fussiness over the artwork.... but we came through in the end.
Of course no recording is possible unless we have the original taper there at the show to put these gigs onto cassette at the time, so a huge thanks to my good friend Jim.
Enjoy.... I know I will.

Big thank to you personally!
It's pity that Earls Court will never be released officially!
And it's pity that not available second night from this show!

I can't download it yet, but I'm really looking forward to. Is it complete ? Is it worth adding it as a second audio track to my old Earls Court DVD set ?

Yes, it's as complete as can be! I'd say it's your call if you want to consider adding it to your DVD :-)

Thanks for this share. Let's hope it's not the only show Jim Jenkins recorded. Maybe there will be a wave of shares from The Jim Jenkins Vault. One can only dream :)

Thanks for this! And thanks for your work guys!

Thank you for this upload.

A Big Big Thankyou for this!!!

Thanks to all involved. Special thanks to Jim Jenkins for taping this! Hope he feels OK about this share.
