Taper: Stadtfelder

Location: Recorded at the back of the front of stage area. This place was more crowded than on other Popmart shows which I have seen and for
this reason there is some crowd noise on the recording. I don't think that this crowd noise is annoying.

Additional notes (by the taper): There are some digital flaws, after "All I Want Is You" at 3:13 and in "Please" at 5:22 and 5:41. I did some digital clones from my master in 1997 and 1998 but there has never been a transfer from this master so far.

Comments

Very good sound quality in this tape that comes straight off the master DAT. It looks like an upgrade to what it is on circulation. It documents the first of two soldout nights in Dublin. Music and vocals come through pretty clear although somewhat distant, so the recording suffers a little lack of crispness and strength. As mentioned above by the taper, there's some crowd noise here and there.
