According to the Waterson:Carthy newsletter of summer 2004, “a number of tracks were recorded live at gigs during recent tours and one track, The Oxford Girl, was recorded at a soundcheck.” This does not quite fit the album notes which only state Napoleon’s Death to be recorded live at Blackheath Concert Hall.
