Comments

Decent recording with a very harsh sound overall. Although music comes through pretty powerful (too much at times), it lacks more punch on the bass. Volume adjustements are audible during the first seconds of 11 O'Clock Tick Tock. Anyway, the recording levels were set a bit high, so the concert contains from time to time spots of clipping and distortion during the louder parts of the songs.

A hard edit can be found at 04:08 in Sunday Bloody Sunday (perhaps a tape flip?) that kills a good portion of the song. Audience is very audible and rowdy in a few parts of the show, but never overwhelming. The show is very energetic with long performances of The Electric Co. and Bad, this last song full of snippets.
