Bordeaux, France, Le Chat Bleu - 20.10.1986. (Thanks Mick)

The most interesting thing about this show and the Spanish shows is that they clearly illustrate how much tighter the band had become since the British and European dates 5 months earlier.

The fantastic quality of this recording make it a joy to listen to and the band seem much more confident and relaxed than at the outset of the tour.

Show high-light has to be a blistering Low Life, which has to be heard, not least for Lydon's lyrical re-arrangements to include the line: "I hate the French"

After Flowers there is a cut in which Banging the Door or 4 enclosed walls (or both) have been edited out by the bootleger.

Round has also been edited out as we hear the drum intro but then there's a cut in the tape, and we resume with Home. This is unfortunate, but perhaps an unedited copy exists somewhere. Fishing has also been edited out of history.

A fantastic bootleg, well worth finding despite it having been cut to pieces.

There's a cut after Low Life and another before Poptones (Fishing has been edited out!)

Public image has been been moved to the end of the set for some ridiculous reason!

There's a cut between Pretty Vacant and Religion.

There's a cut between Flowers and Bags.

There's a cut between Bags and Home.

There's a cut between Home and Rise.

There's a cut between Holidays and Public image.
