Additionnal Infos And Comments :
- Differents bonus as the USA version, different menu as well
- The 1975 NYC footage as bonus , 3 songs, just for that bonus this Blu Ray is the one to get
- Just the bonus part of this releases is worth the price
- Amazing picture and sound quality , that should be noted
- Omissions like Peace Medal 1978 , Nesta's early years in the ghetto, Omeriah Malcolm , Nesta in Sweden , the perfect movie simply do not exist
- Terror released on 7"s as bob martin on Beverley's was offered by an anonymous collector
but not used for the main documentary, in fear of his effect
- There's no liner notes, quite sad
