Live at National Palace Of Culture, Sofia, Bulgaria on May 21, 2001

After releasing *Inspiration* in 2000, Yngwie embarked on a US tour with vocalist Jørn Lande. However, a heated altercation—which even required police intervention—led to Jørn quitting the tour midway through. Unable to cancel the scheduled show, Yngwie performed the concert in Cleveland on April 8, 2001, without a vocalist; this release captures that entire performance in superb audio quality. The setlist differed significantly from a standard concert, featuring Yngwie on vocals for several songs while the rest were instrumentals; furthermore, subsequent tour dates were cancelled until the return of former vocalist Mark Boals, making this particular performance a rare and essential listen for fans.
The included DVDR features pro-shot footage of the concert in Sofia, Bulgaria, held on May 21 of the same year—after Mark Boals had rejoined the band. As this is rare pro-shot footage that had never circulated despite having been broadcast on television, it is another item fans certainly won't want to miss.
