The review

This product is credited to Rod Stewart only but features all but the title track with the Faces, most coming from December 74 London show with Keith Richards guesting on three tracks (just on "Twistin’ The Night Away" and "Sweet Little Rock’n Roller" here) and a whole Orchestra backing up the Faces, but also from the Roundhouse 72 gig with Ronnie Lane. And since the London concert has been recently put out officially with 5.1 sound the Roundhouse gig is what matters most here, the film is pro shot however the audio (albeit stereo) it has the audio a bit low. But like I said the title of this work is coming from the official promo video for "Love Touch" that opens up this 14 clips collection. Packaging is not that great with lots of mistaken song titles on the back and no information on the source and this coupled with the misleading title explain a barely sufficient rating.
