Notes
This album was recorded live on May 17, 1986 at the Self-Aid concert in Dublin. The concert was organized to highlight and to help out the unemployment problem in Ireland that was affecting the country at the time. The concert at the time was the largest staged in Ireland. Many of the acts performed more than the one or two songs that were included on this compilation.
