Eric Clapton Hunger Burning is a soundboard recording of the June 26th, 1985 Worcester, Massachusetts show.

REALLY? Pick the best source, make it sound great and press it as a three disc. If they both sound great, just man up and choose one! Maybe I’ll wait and see if Godfather will release this as a more sensible and affordable 3 disc. (Probably not, since the two labels never seem to overlap on releases). Anybody that has insight and can justify the excursiveness of this release please enlighten me. I’m just thinking about the unnesesary ‘In A House Of Pain’ second source. Or they’re being clever and selling this first and have the 3 disc ‘Definitive’ version waiting in the wings…sorry that was my wallet talking. I have no connection to Sigma however I guess they are trying to offer the collector a different listening experience by releasing both sources in one set. Personally I’m not gonna complain since Sigma and Godfather both release some excellent stuff and it might take me a few more weeks to purchase a 6 disc set but considering their attraction I can be patient and usually find it’s worth it. I figured that Sigma was most likely going to do an upgrade of Floyd’s Vancouver ’75 show sooner or later, as I’ve had a CD-R copy of the DSotM part of it at least a couple years by now, but I certainly wasn’t expecting the eventual pressed silver release to be as many as 6 discs when they could’ve made it as few or little as just 2. I probably won’t be getting it myself, at least not anytime soon, but hopefully for others who are considering it and are concerned about the price, it’ll be at the same price as the 6-CD “Assorted Lunatics” (also Sigma), which was actually at quite a reasonable price, at least where I ordered mine from – considering that it was actually only 42.9 % higher than that of a 3-CD. It’s often actually those 1-CD titles that are the most costly in terms of $$$ per disc – especially at a couple stores that I know of that have some rather outrageous prices.
