notes

• Tracks 1, 2 and 7 on disc 2, that were recorded at the Wembley Arena (London, England, October 14, 1990) is the show at which their official video for War Ensemble was shot. It was also supposed to be released as Slayer's first home video titled, Live At Wembley. It was available to order, but was never officially released by Slayer. There are people that claim to have the show on VHS or DVD. The only OFFICIAL video released from that show is the video above, Raining Blood / Black Magic(live) and the War Ensemble official video (Footage from Live At Wembley with studio audio off of Seasons In The Abyss).

• At that show, Slayer announced they were filming a video for the song, and would play the audio through the PA and play along to the track (I hate to use the term, but it is called "Lip Syncing"). The crowd did not approve, so they just wound up playing the song live due to the crowds protest, and later synced up the audio with the footage for the official video.
