Recording was available on bootlegs long before the offical release.
[edit]It didn't just circulate "for many years" secretly being traded "just amongst a small group of fans who knew of its existence", - some tracks from the concert (mostly Joe with Mick Jones) appeared on bootleg vinyl around 2004 (some widely available on ebay &/or sold on what had previously been Joe Strummer's offical website) shortly followed by a cd boot of the full concert. 79.73.68.44 (talk) 02:02, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
What's the source for it being recorded by fans who knew Mick was going to be there and thought an onstage reunion was going to happen?
[edit]Don't remember seeing anything like that on the Joe/Clash message boards or other coverage of the gig, i recall people inc. major fans, being amazed/excited that it had happened and Mick Jones saying in an interview that he hadn't even planned going on stage, it was totally spur of the moment. Only coverage/discussion I remember seeing any where re a possible Clash members reunion was re wether the band would reform for their Rock And Roll hall Of Fame induction the next year (2003). 79.73.68.44 (talk) 02:13, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
