The review
This is the final release of the series and features the Kaiserslautern concert which happened at the of August 2002, implemented by the only 2 songs available from Bergen, Norway on May 4th as bonus. This recording had not been circulating widely, but Kaiserslautern is another excellent recording that has all instruments upfront and both high and bass frequencies available. The setlist is the same as usual but there is the addition of The End f The Line, another song from The Meaning Of Life album. This is by far the longest concert of the lot, played with confidence by the combo that helped out Todd Sharpville during his 2002 European tour, with Brian Aylor on drums replacing Hugo Dagenhardt. Bergen too is in mono but in good quality, too bad just 2 tracks surfaced from this concert that are however in soundboard quality, they seem to be coming from a broadcast, probably from tv being in mono; anyway this release is a great way to end this series that has proposed different material for Taylor fans.
