Rationale

The details for the recording rationale is included into the album as follow:

This album is a Two Track digital bootleg recorded with 2 Microphones on our last European Tour in "1994". We never planned on releasing these tapes. This is our last album with Carl. It's as raw as can be. "No Overdubs". We put it together to feel like one Show! VR is Forever!!! With Carl's spirit we will carry on as a band.

Dedication
