Additional comments During Mark Knopfler’s first solo tour in 1996, six soundboard recordings were made. The last one was from Théatre Antique, Vaison-la-Romaine in France on 3rd August 1996. It was one day before the last show of the tour, so the band was really playing amazing by that time and it features awesome versions of Calling Elvis and Water of love. The concert was broadcasted on the radio for which special CD’s were made. This release (PL/MKNOP01/01 – PL/MKNOP01/02) is part of a limited edition live radio promo series sponsored by Coca-Cola and made by European label MCM/Austereo. It consists of two silver pressed discs featuring the concert and two interview segments with Mark Knopfler. Furthermore, the original small paper (13x 21cm) with on one side the Mark Knopfler biography and concert details. On the other side the interview transcription and the cue sheet. Packed in its own unique outer box, which is really rare to find. It was distributed in a very limited number (only around 30-50 copies were made), one for each radio station for broadcasting in 1996. Austrian edition.
