Notes
Recorded at The Fall's second Auckland concert in August 1982, the last on their New Zealand tour. It was released on the Flying Nun label with, what Chris Knox thought was, permission from the group after they played the group the tapes. However, Flying Nun were ed by the groups Australian publishers and were told it was an 'unauthorised' release. According to Knox the label was ordered to stop exporting it, press no more copies and also the profits onto the publishers. It has since received an 'official' release.
Also available via the The Fall - [1982] box set (2019).

what are the chances someone out there has a spare insert?
-
Hope this will get a reissue one day. It‘s a classic live record. -
Nice little write up about the interesting history behind this record: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/feb/21/the-fall-band-new-zealand-flying-nun-record-company -
This infamous CD reissue was poorly mastered from vinyl, with uncorrected skips appearing on some tracks.
-
I don't think this should be listed as unofficial. Flying Nun is a legit label, and the story goes that they received permission to record and release this record for the New Zealand market only, but started sending import copies out once NZ sales had dried up. When MES saw the record appearing in the UK and with only a picture of the recently fired Marc Riley on the front, he was angry and claimed he hadn't given any permission. -
The version of hard life in country on this is my favourite fall song ever
