Enlight note:

This is the first of two warm-up shows prior to Eric Clapton's annual run at the Royal Albert Hall.
It is the first date of his "August" 1987 world tour.

Great performance,with Mark Knopfler on second guitar!
EC, MK and the band take their time between songs, little bit of tunning, EC telling the name of the songs,
the new and old ones, during those moments you can hear the audience loud, but not during the songs. ( very relaxed)

Both EC's as Mark's guitar are clearly present in this recording.

A rarity is the absence of Wonderful Tonight which wasn' t played at both the Manchester gigs,
just to reappear a few days later at the Royal Albert Hall shows and stay in the setlist for the next 20 years.
