Cool! Too bad the Sunset CD doesn't have its original printed sleeve. Still, I hardly ever see it anywhere anymore.

"This was the national tour that only last a few cities because it was so expensive to run that they couldn't make a profit."

It wasn't expensive to run (well, comparatively speaking), it was expensive to tour. It was $1million just to load-in the mansion set. Considering most shows make around $1 million a week at most(on average), there is no way this show could have made back its money.

It did have a cardboard sleeve - I have a copy of this particular CD promo, along with many other rare Sunset singles

The second tour was pretty decent as well, even with the scaled down set; the car wasn't even on stage if I recall correctly

WHen I saw it with Petula Clark the car was on stage and it was a huge cut out, It was funny! The show was very good though. Can you send me a copy of that card?

You can see the cover of the cardboard sleeve on Ron Bohmer's website. Scroll towards the bottom...it's on the left (it's red).
