The album was released posthumously in 2018, and is a CD/DVD package, approved by Allan's estate. The album contains the same video and audio as the previously released "[[Tokyo Dream (video)|Tokyo Dream]]" laserdisc, and the unauthorized 1997 release "[[I.O.U._Live_(album)|I.O.U. Live]]".

Judging from the sources, it appears that the video was shot in May 1984 for a TV broadcast in Japan. Subsequently, a company released the concert on the laserdisc format in 1984. Allan protested this release, as he claims it was a breach of contract. The laserdisc format soon disappeared, so the concert was officially out of print. However, it was heavily bootlegged and traded on audio and VHS tapes. In 1997, Pangea Music released a CD version, co-produced by singer Paul Williams. This created a considerable rift between Allan and Paul. Allan was able to pull the CD off the official market, and the concert was once again relegated to bootlegs. | Judging from the sources, it appears that the video was shot in May 1984 for a TV broadcast in Japan.
