It was from this show that Morrissey culled the four live b-sides that were mastered and released as b-sides to the Boy Racer single; as well as the two live b-sides to the Sparks remix of Suedehead. Multiple bootlegs exist of this show, of varying quality and source, some including material from other shows from this era. What follows is an attempt to differentiate between the various audio documents of this show.<br>

The full show was later released as a bonus disc for the 20th Anniversary Remastered Edition of ''[[Vauxhall And I]]''.
The second half of the disc dates from Bristol several weeks later and is an audience recording of considerably poorer quality.<br>

The concert recordings on this bootleg are purported to be sourced from FM broadcasts, which is certainly possible but the overall quality is not quite up to par with what one would expect from a mixing desk-derived recording. Nevertheless this is a very good bootleg overall, offering the best sounding presentation of the Drury Lane tracks as well as a concise overview of the 1995 touring period in general.<br>

This is a solid audience recording of the entire Drury Lane show, sequentially correct, and including several tracks not present on better-sounding FM broadcasts. It does, however, miss the encore, Shoplifters Of the World Unite.<br>
