Number of Songs: 16
Album Notes: The album was actually a recording of a concert film by the same name, shot by the band while on tour to promote an entirely different album, “Speaking in Tongues.” While the film did its job promoting the other album, the film itself was a massive commercial success and launched the soundtrack to heights higher than the album it was meant to promote. The film is regarded as one of the greatest concert films of all time, and was recently placed in the Film Registry of the Library of Congress.
