Background and release

[edit]

On 13 July 1991, INXS were filmed in concert at Wembley Stadium in London, performing to a sold-out mass of 72,000 fans. This concert was filmed in 35 mm and directed by David Mallet with no less than 17 cameras.[1]

The album was released in February 2014 to coincide with the screening of INXS: Never Tear Us Apart, an Australian miniseries about INXS that commenced airing on 9 February 2014 and concluded the following week on 16 February on the Seven Network.[2]

A fully restored film edition of the Wembley Stadium performance was released in 2019, with CD and vinyl editions.[3]
