This was originally issued on LP in a run of 1000 copies, released tocommemorate the Acid Mother Temple's tour of America in the year 2000.Wabana's digital reissue in the generic purple digipack reproduces theexact same tracklist as the original, with no extras: just five tracksexcerpted from live shows at various venues across the land of the(mostly) free.
