The official release in America was issued in a longform package with two separate CD’s. In Australia, Japan and South America this album was released as two separate records: Tina Live in 1987 and More Live in 1988, but in Australia it was reissued as this 2-disc set in 1993.

Tina Turner - Live In Europe - Album

Billboard - April 02, 1988

This fine two-record compendium should have legs to rival Tina’s own. Featured are Turner’s own recent hits: oldies — Ike & Tina Turner and otherwise; blistering covers of such modern-day staples as „Addicted To Love“ and guest shots by David Bowie, Robert Cray, Bryan Adams, and Eric Clapton. LP buyers really lose out: Cassette and CD packages contain four extra tracks.
