This was announced on July 17, 2006 - only 10 days after the second show - by far the quickest turn around from performance to announcement, second place being Live Trax Vol. 49 at 42 days.

In contrast, the 71 days from announcement to release date is the longest period of time of any standard cycle release. Exceptions - Live Trax Vol. 1 (no formal announcement date) and Live Trax Vol. 15 (Big Whiskey pre-order bonus). Both had longer periods from announcement to release, but both were atypical announcements.

It was the first, and one of only two Live Trax releases to contain multiple complete shows (Live Trax Vol. 9).

It was the first in the Live Trax series to be released to stores as opposed to an online exclusive.

It was made available for order (along with Live Trax Vol. 7) on red vinyl through the Warehouse store on November 30, 2020. The vinyl release uses the same cover as the reprinted CD release with the exception of black lettering on the "Live Trax Ribbon" that is usually white.

It was made available for order on black vinyl through the Warehouse store on April 11, 2023.
