Pro Live in Studio 8.9 - A fine old tape that shows some compression from having been broadcast over the air. -
Audience 9.4 - Fantastic atmosphere and vibe on this one. A strong recording that captures their full, glorious girl power. I can almost taste the delicious sweat emanating off Susanna Hoffs' super hotness - OK, so I had a major crush on her back in the day (does that explain it?)

Audience 8.8 - The sound of this recording owes almost all of its characteristics to the house PA sound. What I mean is this: The recorder very accurately captured exactly what this gig sounded like, and so if there is any particular thing that is not as good as it could be, we need to talk to the sound man. This tape captures this show in excellent quality, I would say the rating reflects more what the sound itself actually was like at this show - not great (for me I just did not love the drum sounds, and thought the guitars could be louder) but really very good. I think it is a matter of preference then, because some people might really like the way this show sounds coming out of the main PA system.

Audience 9.5 - This is the good stuff! A well balanced and dynamic recording as close and clear as you can get to Susanna...ahhh...you can hear but not touch!

FM Broadcast 9.2 - Even though this is a broadcast, it retains a "rough" mix quality to it which suits the band's sound and style. The recording quality is fantastic, it does not have a lifeless feel but rather an obvious impromptu feel as you can tell by the stage feedback as the mix gets dialed in.

Audience 9.0 - This is actually how The Bangles should sound live. This is as punk as I have heard them. The guitar tone is killer, the drums are bare bones and perfect...vocals delivered directly into my ears like sweet butter spread on an ear of corn.

Studio Quality 9.7 - A great collection of exciting tracks that for me were very illuminating because I never really took the time to listen to this band back in the day. Now, well it's pretty clear they were great and now I am fully engrossed in their works and this set delivers plenty.

Audience 9.3 - A great, very lively and sharp recording. I love the mix here too, drums are prominent without being boomy, guitars are complimentary and tuneful. This is a really fun hour of listening pleasure and will get repeat plays in your player for sure.
