Audience 9.5 - Spectacular! I mean there are times when you’d swear it was a board. This is a must have! -
Soundboard 8.7 - Technically a clean board but the mix is great if you are a drummer. I exaggerate, it’s decent, but yes this is one to play for aspiring drummers as Neil is well recorded and mixed. There are some minor negative complaints I can make to the recording, but they are on technical levels and most ears will be receptive to this soundboard. -
Audience 8.7 - Nothing offensive here, a capture with more than enough headroom to EQ to taste, which shows me the tapers knew what they were doing with the levels. Thank you. -
Sale!
Audience 8.8 - For the time, this is a wonderful sounding audience capture. Usually you get a very one dimensional and boomy sound but this one is refreshingly stereophonic and wide, warm, punchy with just that little touch of vocal reverb that allows you to get a sense of the venue. Really really good! (Atmospheric) -

Audience 6.6 – 7.0 - Noisy and one dimensional. The performance is special, Alex is inspired. There are moments of clarity on this tape, it is not complete garbage at all, but overall is not one of the best recordings out there. -
Audience 9.1 - Highly enjoyable, sound fluctuates at times where taper is probably jockeying for better position but overall I rate it highly as it is a good immersive capture. -
Aud 7.6 / SDBRD 9.0 - A little cluttered in the center with not the best instrument separation. Listenable. Bonus disc includes most of the same show in soundboard quality. -

Audience 8.7 - A nice one! Funny to hear the Japanese tapers between songs, but they did a good job capturing this show for sure. When performers play Japan, you have to wonder what it must be like to play in front of large crowds of people who have no clue what you are singing about. -
Audience 9.4 (both shows) - Expertly recorded from optimal position with high end gear. Clear and nuanced, with some headroom allowing for the atmosphere of the event to add another dimension to the sonically excellent captures. -
Audience 8.8 - Deep, rich lows are what highlight this tape. There is the tiniest amount of distortion in the bass due to just how profound it is in this recording but not to the expense of everything else mind you – although I would say the rest of the music sits a little behind the low end. I can wholeheartedly recommend this but bear in mind if you want to blast it loud you may want to tune down the bass frequency. -
Audience 9.1 - Small club with great sound. One of those recordings that completely envelopes you with good, clearly defined sound that occasionally swirls above you giving you additional atmospherics. Killer! -
