Audience 7.1 - A very subdued tape, and lots of hiss that at some points is cleaner so no real stress. It is reasonably clear in that you can hear everything, just sounds like it needs a kick in the mid range or some good multi-band compression. Interesting to hear these sort of stripped down Dark Side shows.

Audience 8.0  - A very “live” sort of sound, what you might expect to sound like if you were there, albeit with poor seats. Loud, slight echo, a little boominess, but overall I found it to be what I call a decent audience recording. You do adjust to the acoustics, and actually can enjoy this show.

Audience 7.0 - Something about this recording I find very interesting. It’s a haunting, mystical vibe, a somber heaviness that falls over the stadium and envelopes everything. The recording gives you just enough to experience it, despite it not being exactly hi-fi, it is truly fascinating to experience this show from this taper’s perspective. You will be totally pulled into this gig, and the recording slowly does seem to get better. I like it!

Audience 7.8 - The recording shines during the quieter passages and gets slightly crowded during intense sections but without any distortion at all. It’s really quite good, I think even the most discerning collector can benefit by having this performance.

Audience 8.8 and Audience 8.9   (old source and new source featured on disc 2)

Audience 8.3 - Has that huge outdoor stadium type sound but it helps in a strange way this time.
