ARMS Benefit Concert
20 Sept 1983
Royal Albert Hall
London, England

This is an incomplete version of the 20 Sept 83 London ARMS (Action For Research Into Multiple Sclerosis) - an All Star show to benefit (former Faces guitarist) Ronnie Lane. Several ARMS concerts were staged across the US (New York, San Francisco and Dallas). This is the only show that I know of from London. The ARMS shows were professionally filmed and released on video in Autumn 1984. Soundboard recording was made by Glyn Johns with The Rolling Stones Mobile Studio (sound engineer: Mick McKenna).

I'm not sure why these songs were left off of this audio compliation version (because they easily could have fit on the discs), but here are the missing songs. Interestingly enough, all 5 of these songs are on the companion DVD for this show. But some of the above songs on this cdr are not on the DVD.  Life isn't a game of perfect you know   ;-)

 Rita Mae
 Ramblin' on My Mind/Have You Ever Loved a Woman
 Stairway to Heaven  - instrumental version
 Tulsa Time
