Background
A double CD version was later released. A DVD version of the concert, recorded at Wembley Conference Centre, followed suit and was released in 2005.
"Guilty" was released as a single between the release of Incantations and Exposed.
Initially during the tour the concerts were being recorded without the knowledge of the musicians, so that they could be paid less money; for just a performance and not a recording, the musicians found out, but the recordings went ahead and the album was produced.
The artwork is linked to the title, as it shows a frame of film containing a photo of Oldfield in a concert arena.
The album was recorded using The Manor Studio's Mobile unit, and mixed at The Town House, London. Although not marketed as such, the double vinyl album was recorded in quad using the SQ Quadraphonic System.

Famous quotes containing the word background:
“In the true sense one’s native land, with its background of tradition, early impressions, reminiscences and other things dear to one, is not enough to make sensitive human beings feel at home.”
—Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
“Silence is the universal refuge, the sequel to all dull discourses and all foolish acts, a balm to our every chagrin, as welcome after satiety as after disappointment; that background which the painter may not daub, be he master or bungler, and which, however awkward a figure we may have made in the foreground, remains ever our inviolable asylum, where no indignity can assail, no personality can disturb us.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“... every experience in life enriches one’s background and should teach valuable lessons.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
