Comments:

Homemade video-cd of the legendary Nelson Mandela Tribute Concert at Wembley in 1988.  The show is taken from Spanish television and contains Billy Conolly's famous introduction "Ladies and Gentlemen, with a happy heart and a tear in either eye: Dire Straits!".  Fantastic performance of the whole band, with Mark doing unbelievable things on his new Pensa-Suhr guitar.  Very nice extra is  Eric Clapton on second guitar, who filled in for Jack Sonni.  The show is complete, sound and video are ok.  However, the same show is also available on another video-cd taken from German TV.  That one has better picture and sound quality, so I recommend that one.
