Not on vinyl but CD. I still have to comment on its quality, I thinks its a very very well recorded live show.

When "On An Island" was first released DG's record company put out a promo film, only shown at select theaters around the country, and it showed David recording on his glass bottom boat, moored in the Thames River, accompanied by David Crosby and Graham Nash. I believe that eventually became the actual video single for the song. Brilliant.

I was at one of those simulcast shows at a cinema. It was a live interview with Gilmour and band along with the simulcast premier of the release of the Live at Albert Hall DVD. It was a memorable event, a polished performance by a rock guitar legend, both at the peak and the twilight of his career. The interviewer was Phil Manzanera (who did a wretched job). When asked his favorite song from his catalog, Gilmour replied "Fat Old Sun". Listening to him pour himself out out on the Gdansk version of Fat... there's no doubt about his passion for that song.
