Seems there will be a new vinyl available.
Looks pretty unoffical, but is sold via JPC which is one of the most popular german vinyl dealers.

Ah, I thought this seemed familiar.

It's done the rounds as a pseudo-official release a few times before. I wouldn't read anything into it this time.

I bought this record at a very reputable local record store that does not carry bootlegs. It is now available through all the major websites. Of course, this doesn't mean that the band had anything to do with this release, and maybe it still is a semi-bootleg, I don't know. This was a revelation to me, since I did not have any unofficial recordings of this show. If I am comparing this to typical audience recordings that are out there, then this soundboard recording sounds phenomenal. But in comparison to professionally recorded live shows, this is not as good - it's a bit uneven. Nonetheless, I would definitely recommend it - I had not owned any recordings of Ghost Rider / Sister Ray, and that plus a great rendition of Gimme Shelter make this a worthwhile purchase, especially because it is not that expensive in the US.
