Hopefully the comments centered around this post will be positive. I get my panties in a bunch every once in a while too. Human, you know, but I sincerely apologize for the bad vibes. It wouldn't happen again.

This package is a combination of two FM Broadcasts. The setlist for the 1987 show lists "The Adultress" after "Message of Love". Obviously, it didn't get recorded.
I had to put the first four tracks of the 1987 show on Disc One to conserve space.
Anyway, these are two splendid sounding, rocking shows. The 1987 show sounds better, but they both jam.
This is a must have for all fans of The Pretenders!
Enjoy all.

Notes: This soundboard recording was made for the BBC Radio 1 programme. The vinyl boot (from Denmark) also contains some released rare tracks. B-sides are not included here.
The performance is incredible - to the point that I find it difficult to listen to the album. Crank it up.

**Information from http://www.pretendersarchives.com/discography/Bootlegs-Vinyl.html**

Talk Of The Town (Not Real Records 006 - Denmark)
The Wait / Stop Your Sobbing / Kid / Cuban Slide / Brass In Pocket / Mystery Achievement / The Wait / Talk Of The Town / Cuban Slide / Swinging London (instr.) / Nervous But Shy (instr.)
Released in 1980 and taken from the same show as The Wait (see above). Talk Of The Town includes these extras: The Wait (the version produced by Nick Lowe [the UK Sobbing b-side]), Talk Of The Town (UK version), Cuban Slide (the flip of Talk Of The Town - UK release), Swinging London, and Nervous But Shy (both the instrumental b-sides of the UK release of Brass In Pocket). This album claims to be a promo and goes on to list the label as "Not Real Records" (at the time, the Pretenders' UK label was Real Records). Its one quirk is the uncredited inclusion of The Castaways' "Liar, Liar" as the last track. Very odd... great, but odd.
