Comments

Third and last night in Hartford, and another awesome recording made by the same taper with the same equipment than the previous nights. Again, sound quality is fantastic with all instruments and vocals well captured. The tape offers great clarity and a powerful performance by the band. Audience noise is minimal when the band are playing, although some applause and cheering can be heard between songs. A brilliant and pretty interesting concert with lots of changes in the set order.

Note that Where the Streets Have No Name cuts in missing the very first seconds.
