Tape duration: approx. 30:30. Movie duration: 29:16. Packaged in a cardboard slipcase. There's no tracklisting, but the various events are listed on back cover with their location: "- Earthqueake [sic] IV (Mysteryworld - Zaandam) - Thunderdome XII Tour (several locations) - Thunderdome XIII Tour (several locations) - Thunderdome 1996 (Leeuwarden) - Thunderdome XIV Tour (several locations) - Heroes Of Hardcore (Vechtsebanen - Utrecht)". The names of the events also appear in shorter forms in the video (as given in the tracklist above). Performing artists also also named on screen. Tracks VHS-1 and VHS-3 to VHS-6 are in mono quality. Track VHS-1 is a introduction and trailer, first showing the same text as on back cover (without the numerous spelling mistakes), then extracts of the following videos. Back cover claims that "This tapes [sic] contains smashing previously unreleased footage of all the above mentioned events!". However, all videos from [r553153], [r553252], [r553166], [r553239] and [r532141] were already previously released in the respective video registrations of these tours and parties. Tracks VHS-4, VHS-6, VHS-7, VHS-8 and VHS-11 are significantly shorter here than on these source videos. Track VHS-7 is a small part of [url]=http://www.discogs.com/artist/Prophet%2C+The]The Prophet[/url]'s DJ set that was just before DJ Delirium's performance on the original Thunderdome '96 video. Track VHS-12 was sampled from the [m26933]Thunderdome XIV[/url]; at the beginning, a very short part of the previous track on that compilation can be heard ("Booming Track" by Lady Dana & DJ Skorp). During track VHS-13 a few technical credits appear on screen with the note "All rights reserved - 1996". Note on back cover: "℗ 1996 © 1996"
