Tracklisting

26 February 1988

(JP: 'The name of the next band is a very rude word in Dutch, but I'm counting on the fact that none of you speak Dutch, so you won't mind me saying that the band is called....') [1]
(JP: 'Some curious things happened to me in Russia. One, I was asked for me autograph whilst I was in the Hermitage, overlooking the archway where all the Bolsheviks came pouring in at the start of the Revolution, in a room full of paintings by Matisse as well. So to be asked for your autograph in that context, very odd indeed. But stranger yet was on the penultimate day of our trip, when we felt that we knew our way around Leningrad, we made our way to a cemetery where we went and found the graves of Glinka and Mussorgsky, Rimsky-Korsakov and Tchaikovsky.')
