During the Summer tour of 2005 Miles Ashton, our great live sound engineer who runs his own studio in Watford, recorded all of Colosseum's concerts to 24-track digital. Clem and Dave spent long days at Clem's studio auditioning all the performances looking for that magical mix of performance and natural sound quality and put together a complete show to run over two CD's. We then spent the spring of 2007 mixing in the TM studio.

A trip to Japan in Feruary 2007 produced half of the booklet photos including the striking front cover. The rest come from the 2005 festival in Wiesen, close to Vienna in Austria.

The first set features the performances from The Theatrehaus in Stuttgart together with one track from The Music Hall in Worpswede. The second set was recorded at The Tribehaus in Innsbruck.

Although Barbara played alongside DHS on the first three original albums this new release is the first featuring her with the band - and she has bought a whole new dimension with her - the boys are more than delighted, especially since now they are seeing more women in the audience!
