Five Live Box, Volume One
Amazing Unreleased Live Shows

Including artwork.

Five live shows from the great Richard Thompson. All of them sound outstanding, and none have ever been released. There may be a couple of niggling sound issues here and there, but you’ll be pleased with all of these solo, acoustic performances (@320). There are too many highlights to mention, but you can listen to a track from each show to judge the quality. The Greenstreets show is a well-known bootleg called Columbia Gold, and includes the soundcheck version of “I Misunderstood”/”The Killing Jar” (actually taped a week later).
