REVIEW:

For volume 5 of this series we get to Philadelphia. For this show, a version sent by ‘Smokedusky’ years ago, was the best one. It was already reworked in 2016, here’s the text file from back then:

The sound was amplified (+1db) in some tracks and from 2’18 until 2’38 of You Never Can Be Trusted. Have also been improved the beginnings/ends of each disc with fade ins/outs. The only problem was that The Dark Side Of Midnight was cut after 4’55 (probably due to a tape flip) and the end of the song was on track 7. Trying to improve the listening pleasure a fade in/out was placed at the gap and the two segments were joined. On Disc 2, track 4 little defaults at the end were deleted but some harsh transitions between some songs remained, but nothing really too bad. Here’s what was newly done: Both channels have been rephased and rebalanced as well as the transitions between the tracks. Note a fade in/out before Room To Move. Taylor is in top form here plating great licks that make this one of the best concerts of this tour. The setlist is abut the same but there is a long version of Lookin’ For Willie clocking in at over 9 minutes that deserves to be noted.


The best toys are the ones that are both educational and multi-purposeful.
