I have the live album from that show and can't remember ever listening to it. Maybe I should rectify that tonight,...if I can stay awake.

Also have the live album, and play it several times a year. Bought it when it first came out, and 2nd hand copies, according to discogs, are several times the issue price. Though in some respects I prefer the original - of which I only have on cd.

I have that Astral and Moondance version. They sound really good to me, well better than my 80's AU CD version. Only paid $20 (not $24.99) for them.

I've accumulated over a dozen Van LPs through the years, but only relatively recently acquired an Astral Weeks, a NZ copy.
