Only a few weeks after TD's performance in Manchester in May 2011, the complete concert was released as a MP3 download from the Tangerine Dream website at a very fair price of 7.90€ for almost 3 hours of music. At that time it was not intended to do a proper CD release of the concert.
Nevertheless, in early August Tangerine Dream announced on their website that they had changed their minds due to requests from numerous fans and that there would be a CD release of the complete concert. This 3-CD set was finally released at the end of August, featuring a completely redesigned artwork. It comes with a 16-page booklet with a list of press quotes, the track listing, credits and a large number of photos taken during the concert as well as at the merchandise stall and at the fan meeting thereafter. So quite a number of TD fans will find themselves eternalised on this official release.
Regarding the Eastgate CD release, neither disc nor the paper inserts show any order number or barcode, but the number given below is the order number the Eastgate Music Shop lists this release.
