Notes:
- it took over 20 years to find and get a VHS-Master from this!!
- the tv broadcast was incomplete itself cutting after "Civil War"
- all moderator talking has been edited out carefully
- no equalizing has been done here, just small editing crossfading, normalizing and fading
- some small volume trouble in DTJ
- those two Rio'91 shows were kinda public rehearsals with Axl singing first time with the band
- Axl misses part of a verse in "Civil War"
- "Pretty Tied Up", "Double Talkin' Jive" and "You Could Be Mine" were unreleased during that time, "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" and "Civil War" were released before on soundtracks in 1990
- md5-file included for easy verifying, when verifying is ok this will make you a 1CDR(0) burningwise
- no Sector Boundary Errors (SBEs) on here
