This recording captures a live performance from the Michael Schenker Fest European leg, held on November 4, 2017, at The Ritz: Manchester, UK. Following the Osaka performance on October 16th, the European tour began on October 25th, and this recording captures the performance from the day before the final show of the 2017 tour. The performance is very energetic throughout, with Michael himself appearing to be in excellent form, playing guitar with great intensity from start to finish. The live show itself is fantastic, with a great audience and high energy from the band members, making for a powerful and enjoyable concert. "Love Is Not A Game," which was not performed at the Japanese shows, is included in the setlist. The sound quality is excellent, as it's an audience recording, resulting in a very immersive experience. The overall sound is very clear and easy to listen to, making it feel as if you were actually at the venue.
