I have a two CD set of this show, and there were a few questions I had:

1. I see Bob Weston listed as a guest. However, he's never introduced and only mentioned by Welch right before "Remember Me." Did he really play at this show?

2. There's a song listed as "Don't Give It Up," on the CD, but it's not there. I've also seen it on the sleeve on the LaserDisc. It says the song features Christine, and it comes right before "Remember Me." Is this song really "Why," but just mislabled?

Thanks in advance.

Bob Weston plays on "Remember Me". I have both the CD & video and you can see him playing onstage during that song.

"Don't Give It Up" is a Robbie Patton song. It's on the CD only. You can clearly hear Christine on backing vocals. The song is from Robbie's album, Distant Shores. Christine co-produced that album with Ken Caillat.

How can you have a 2 CD set of Bob Welch Live From The Roxy? I have it, but it's only on 1 CD.

It's a questionable CD set. To boot, it did not come with any artwork. Just the discs. Second, it sounds like it was recorded off of a 2 or 3 generation VHS. Third, the second disc has three songs from "Fleetwood Mac Live."

Oh, OK. I have the official release. I bought it from Amazon U.K. last year. I got my video from eBay. That appears to have been taped from a television show, not directly from the laser disc.

Thanks for all the info!

As it turns out, I just won the Video Discs for "Live From The Roxy" and the "Tusk" documentary.
