Comments

It's the first of recording of two in Paris, at the 'Stade de France', and what a good show. Like the recording of the next night by the same taper, sound quality places in the borderline between very good and excellent range. Music and vocals sound very close, pretty clear and strong. But this tape brings lots of audience noise close to the taper, mostly with cheering and clapping on the "classics" and the first bunch of songs, when the crowd are hyper-excited. However, the sound capture is stunning, but the excited crowd noise may downgrade this tape a little.
