(There is no information in the booklet indicating where or when it was recorded, or what the line-up of the band was at the time. Our guess is that it's recorded in the mid '80's. It could be from the Leisure Tour, but Ed informs me that it doesn't include 'Endicott' or 'My Male Curiosity', which were both part of the show every time he saw them. It's an excellent recording - much better than that live album released in the US on Playa Records, which is so poorly edited it does not do the band justice. The album was re-issued under the title 'Live Party' in 1998 and 'Live - Don't Take My Coconuts' in 2000, with the same track list and lack of information)
