The first video segment shows Lou and his band recorded live at the Paris Olympia on 5/25/74. This segment, which was originally broadcast on French TV, captures the first six songs of Lou's thirteen song set. The second segment contains four tracks that were recorded in Brussels in May 1974 and the final track is from Lou's reunion with John Cale and Nico at Le Bataclan in 1972. On Lou's 1974 tour, the songs have been given a radical reworking to take on an urban, funky vibe. Most of the songs are longer than their respective studio versions which give the band room to jam and highlight prominent bass and keyboard. While Lou has always been the leader of the band, he had now moved to be the focal point as well. Lou is a peroxide blonde, dressed all in black, with large "Marty Rev" style sunglasses - he has completely handed off guitar playing off to Danny Weis and makes some pretty 'interesting' pre-disco dance moves while not singing
