Sockii loves this album. I have never heard it and it was (until now) too expensive used, but am looking forward to getting it now.

I really am just a prog-geek at heart.

I have purchased and listened to the CD.

The offical title is "AirWaves - Live At The BBC Remastered / Live At The Paris Theatre." It is the identical performances as on the "Live at the BBC" prior release.

Stewart talks in his few paragraphs of his liner notes about his excitement on being part of the band.

Unlike sockii, I am not a huge prog rock fan, so much of it was not what I cared for. I did enjoy the song co-written by Stewart, Stark Naked, which is an nice instrumental track.

I also really liked the version of Midnight Wire. I haven't listened to the studio version of Midnight Wire (from the 1975 album of the same name) for several years, but I don't recall liking it as much as I do this live version.
