The review
Here is a concert that is well known by fans because it was officially released; there is only one tracks missing on the official soundboard version and you will find it as a bonus on this version which is an audience recording.
The original recording of this was not in great quality, but not that poor either; it consisted of three parts, with the first two parts having a very weak, deteriorated or absent right channel; the sound was also very hissy. For these two parts only the left channel was used, duplicated and then the hiss reduced and bass frequencies amplified. Part 3 started with Struggle: here the right channel was useful but had to be amplified first by 30%, then (after 1’43 min.) it only had to be amplified by +10%until the end of the recording; the channels had also to be rephased. The tracks were then edited and the overall speed checked. The second part started with big speed variations in Time is On My Side; there is nothing that could be done for that, but happily it gets better afterwards. In order to be synchronized with the official version the first and second part had to be accelerated by +1,1% and the third part by +0,75%.
