Comments: The Deep End was a band Pete organized to raise money for the Double O charity for drug abuse victims. The band played four charity gigs. 2 November was their second show at Brixton and third show overall. Another date was scheduled for Brixton, but was cancelled due to poor ticket sales. 23 January was the band's final show.

The first 23 tracks are from the 2 November show. It is the complete 2 November performance, with the exception that the last song 'Night Train' is missing. Highlights of the recording have been broadcast in various media, including the "King Biscuit Flower Hour." David sang two of his own songs: 'Love on the Air' and 'Blue Light', while John Bundrick performed 'Midnight Lover'. Note that Pete's introduction of David prior to 'Love On The Air' is exactly the same as his intro for 'Blue Light'. Obviously some creative editing has been performed on the original source.

23 January was the last performance by Deep End, which was broadcast on several European TV networks on 29 January. This explains why this recording is occasionally dated as 29 January. The last two tracks ('Rough Boys" and 'All Aboard') are the final tracks from this show.
