1985-86

  With amateur recording devices improving dramatically in the mid-80's, audience recorded bootlegs of this period started to sound extremely good... For some reason, all Lp's released are from the Jan-Feb. 86 European tour, with no US concert from either the "Fly On The Wall" or "Who Made Who" tour available on bootleg. The excellent "Back In Business", "Jailbreak" & "If You Want First Blood" single are the most interesting boots from this period.
