There have been 2 imports of Live at Viareggio and the Turbulent Weather concert circling on eBay,  i was wondering if anyone has any ideas of whether the cd's are worth taking a look at or any other info there is about them  :/

Well, I have seen that are Viareggio 84 and Cologne 82. It's important to know if they are original, copys of the originals or had been recorded from MP3 (less sound quality this time). Also is important to know if they are already this 2 shows because some bootlegs are bad labelled.

The Viareggio concert is soundboard so it has very good sound quality. The show quality is a different story... there is few variation (it was played the full Discovery and Crises albums so there are few songs from other albums). Also 3 tracks aren't complete: The Lake, To France and Taurus 3. But in my opinion it is worth it ;) Further information here  ;)

It is said that the Cologne 82 is also a soundboard concert. I'm not sure about it but it has a good sound quality, that's true :) The tracklist is:
-Tubular Bells (part 1)
-Platinum (part 1 & 2)
-Conflict
-Ommadawn (part 1)
-Sheba
-Mirage
-Family Man
-Taurus II
-Mount Teide
-Five Miles Out
I really like the FMO and Sheba versions (this one is, let's say, a kind of acoustic version). Also an interesting recording to have  ;)
