Label : no label

Length : 78:26

Venue : Park West, Chicago, Illinois, USA

Recording Date : November 2nd, 1984

Quality : FM Recording (A+)

Review : Excellent WXRT FM broadcast recording. Bonus tracks from the "Benefit For World Peace" concert at The Forum in Montreal, June 3rd, 1988. The sound on the bonus tracks is not quite as good indicating possibly a higher generation recording, but still very listenable. And what a listen! Bruce Cockburn is impassioned throughout, drawing applause from the crowd during "Radium Rain" for his growling vocals. And the collaboration with CSN is very exciting. A fantastic "To Raise the Morning Star" is the overall highlight. The event is described as a "Peace concert". A 75-voice children's choir joined Crosby, Stills & Nash in "Teach the Children'' at a Montreal peace concert. The event also featured Bruce Cockburn, Quebec pop star Michel Rivard and the Soviet rock band Aquarium."
