The show had an international live radio broadcast and became one of the most heavily bootlegged U2 shows of all time. Fans were encouraged to tape a recording of the show, and issue #12 of U2's fan magazine Propaganda included a special cassette cover for those who taped the broadcast.[1]
Along with the digital live album Live from Boston 1981, the album's tracks may not be purchased individually and is only available to those who purchase the entire digital box set. This release marks the show's first official release. It is not currently available for download from iTunes.
