The review

The 1st Chicago stop of the Winos 1988 US Tour w asn't very good sounding as far as quality is concerned. Luckily, however a much better sounding alternative version was located called Talk Is Cheap, Chicago which is an improvement especially in the second half of the show. Its speed was correct, so a little more bass was added, and t he transitions between tracks reworked, moreover the beginning and the end of the discs have been upgraded. This version is even longer than the other one, a good minute on Disc One, but 30 seconds shorter on Disc Two; quite frankly it is incomprehensible how, after having heard this recording, the previous one could still be considered for publication, ubi maior minor cessat -used to say the ancient latins.
