Wersquod been really looking forward to bringing the show to even more countries and although wersquove been able to reschedule most of our European ownshows for 2021, we thought wersquod take a listen to the recordings from the tour so far and see if we could create a definitive live album souvenir that everyone, everywhere could enjoy. Irsquom very pleased with the results, especially as this set list includes songs which have never made it to a live CD before, such as For The Greater Good Of God, and other older songs like Where Eagles Dare, Flight Of Icarus, The Clansman and Sign Of The Cross which havenrsquot been included in our live set releases for many years. Wersquove never released a live album from Mexico before and I think this recording does justice to the passion and joy of our Mexican fans who always give us such a fantastic welcome whenever we play there.rdquo
