Comments

This is an excellent recording of a very energetic performance (Bono stated it was his favourite night of the whole tour). Very full tape with pretty good clarity, but I think this is not as punchy as the previous night recording, done by the same taper. Sound comes through powerful and crisp, and audience noise, although audible, is not too disturbing. I prefer this source in terms of sound quality rather than the other tape I have of this concert ('OKM IIr mics + TCD-D7').

The minors I detected are standard, as far as I know. A little skip at 01:09 in All I Want is You that cuts off a few seconds of the song, and a pair of pops at the very end of Miami, and again during Bullet the Blue Sky.
