If you like the Pistols, you'll want this CD, but just the fact that the crowd noise was faked and dubbed in is somewhat annoying. All the stuff is pretty good for a live show and there's some nice twists to the pistols songs you know and love.

If (as one review states) Glen Matlock later dubbed in his
bass, it's not on this recording.

Either the bass wasn't patched through the mixing board, or the soundman turned the bass input to zero.

I don't hear much if any audience noise at all (if this is faked,
again, as another reviewer stated, it sure is subtle).

The main problem with this Live CD is that there are gaps between
each song, rather than a continuous concert recording. There was
no reason to do this.

an excellent concert with dialogues with the audience but what was the use of changing the song order? The review included on the booklet tells you how it really was and the sound of the crowd confirms it. Still, it is pretty good.

Actually the bass was dubbed on by Glen Matlock years after it was originaly recorded.

When I first herd this c.d. I wasn't really a sex pistols fan. But after the first 20 minutes of this c.d. I freakin fliped over it. This is pure punk. Johnny's vocals ripps through you like a train. Sid is at his best. And If you love The Sex Pistols buy this C.D
