As is often the case with those lovable italian bootleg companies, the track listings and credits on the cd packaging go well beyond errors and typos into the realm of outright confusion.
In the most notable of these inaccuracies, Michael Brook is mistakenly credited as playing drums! Either Mr. Brook's musical horizons stretched considerably (or perhaps better stated, moved in another direction) during the tour, or some poor Italian typsetter was trying his bloody best to transcribe what Sylvian was saying at the end of the tape.
In my attempts to compensate, I have made educated deductions as to the actual date and venue information.
A not altogether bad recording considering its illicit origins, Kings Second Chapter is nevertheless rendered redundant and lifeless by the release of the superb official Sylvian | Fripp live album Damage.
