1967/ 1976
Interesting live release this CD in the series of "Extended Versions" that is a short version of "A Long day's Night" only with ten songs of that live album and for these reason if you have "A Long Day's Night" this "Extended Versions" is to leave the shelves.

Basically only the more famous songs of "A Long Day's Night" were included in this release. Which, taken alone, is a good album. The songs flow well and the impression I get is that BOC are ready for a new series of studio albums, having the charge and naturalness that shines. Sure, in hindsight, the music is closer to hard rock and heavy metal when there is a lot of blues or Boogie... Yet the songs are fresh and without a hint of failure.

Long live BOC, in definitive. This release is only a good release for who not have "A Hard Day's Night".
