Comments

Fantastic recording with a pretty powerful and clean sound. All instruments and vocals are well audible (again, bass is a bit muddy for the first few songs), and audience noise is just located between songs. To sum up, excellent sound quality on this one. Band and audience seem to be very "into the show", so this recording brings a great show with a nice live feeling.

 

Usual snippets appeared here and there, such as Stories for Boys and Hello on Vertigo, No Regrets at the end of Sometimes You Can't Make it on Your Own, or The Hands That Built America and Johnny Comes Marching Home on Bullet the Blue Sky.
