Additional notes (by MyPetWookie): I noticed a "skip" in Vertigo, tried to fix it but I don't think there is anything I can do about it. I don't know if it was an issue with the broadcast or my PC.

Additional notes (by miguelca): this recording had left/right channels swapped, resulting in a strange sound with The Edge on the right speaker. I've fixed this. This sounds great with the channels swapped. The broadcast managed to have a nice balance between band and audience sound, so this doesn't sound "dead".

Comments

This is a second source of this concert, this time a radio broadcast by 'Hallan FM', taped by 'MyPetWookie'. It seems the original recording had the channels swapped, so a fixed version popped up, work done by 'miguelca'. Sound quality is excellent, and there are no commercial breaks except for the intro and the outro.
