There is a dispute between Discogs and Amazon on whether I’m The Man (track 1 CD 2) comes from Cologne or Essen.

This is a lot of Joe Jackson (and the DVD option has even more) and inevitably there is some duplication. The track listing is a little deceptive as the Motown medley is split into the separate songs on CD 1 but combined on CD 2.

I also don’t like the way that the 1980 songs are sandwiched in between the 1983 concerts. I’d prefer to see the songs in date order so you can see how the band has progressed.

There are a few recordings of early Joe Jackson but I don’t think you need to duplicate so if you have Live 1980-1986 or the BBC 1979 to 1983 collection, I don’t think you need this.
