It occurred to me that my CD of this concert was not listed on Olivier's site. It now seems apparent that I bought a home-made copy of "Move Back" in a different cardboard sleeve. You folks might like to see it.

Sometimes you don't get what you pay for. It was ten years ago now so there is no chance of a refund. The sound quality could be, uh, better (much, much better).

Nice cover variation. Too bad you got ripped off with a CDR copy.

It appears to be up for download here, but it's behind a paywall that is reportedly a scam.
