Quality - 8.5-9.5/10 very good plus to excellent audience analog recording

CD 1: 14 tracks, 77:45
CD 2: 15 tracks, 67:07
TT: 144:52 This is the ENTIRE concert.

I got this concert directly from the taper about 18 years ago. I was
not there but was assured by the taper that this tape contains
the whole performance. Since I wasn't at the show, I don't have any
amusing or amazing stories to tell, so I'll give you a brief rundown
of the recording, good points and bad.

First, the good points:
1) As mentioned above, this recording is complete.
2) There is virtually NO talking, shrieking, whistling
or any other audience bullshit on this recording.
The taper was surrounded by very polite, quiet, respectful
audience members who were there for the music and not to
hear themselves talk.
3) There is no distortion present. There are no speed problems
or any other serious faults to prevent you from enjoying this
show.
4) This is a very clear recording. The vocals & instruments
come through very clearly and distinctly. I think that the
taper was fairly close to the stage when making this recording.

Second, the bad (not very bad at all) points:
1) There is a little bit of hiss. Not bad, but you'll hear it
from time to time.
2) This is probably the worst point about the recording: the
right channel's strength is variable. The right channel is
weak for 90% of And You And I and then comes back strongly.
This occurs on other songs as well. I have no idea what was going
on but I suspect that there was a short or a loose connection
somewhere in the mic circuitry. The right channel never vanishes
totally but it is weak in several songs. This is basically why
I downgraded it to 8.5. When both channels are pumping, it's
a 9 to 9.5 solidly. Fixing this problem is beyond my capabilities.
Perhaps some audio wizard out in Dime land can fix this for us all.
If anyone is interested in doing so, you have my complete and utter
permission to knock yourself(ves) out. I could've used a splitter
to record the left channel only but didn't want to create a mono
recording, so I left the problem alone. If you can help, please do!!!
(How I wish that the taper would've used something like a Sony or Aiwa with an external stereo tie mic instead of a Radio Shack setup
but what can you do ?????).

So there you have it. This is the raw recording that I've had lo
these many years. I changed NOTHING about this recording except
to track it and to remove overly-long stretches of applause and screaming
between songs. No music is missing. This show fits on 2 80 min. CDs.
CD 1 = Tracks 1 - 14. CD 2 = Tracks 15 - 29. The song titles become more understandable if you have a copy of the legit ABWH tape lying
around so you can follow along with that setlist. That's about all that
I can think of to say, so let's wrap this up.

Finally, please don't buy, sell or convert this show to mp3 or any other
lossy construct. Please seed this as long as you can. Please trade
this freely as it probably is uncirculated. This show will be a
welcome addition to any ABWH fan's collection. I think that, even with
the right channel problems (which really aren't very bad at all), most
of you will really love this show. I will post a sample to help some
of you decide whether or not to download it. So, as Mr. Natural is so
fond of saying, have fun, don't freak out and enjoy the concert !
