The good news is that there are some very good readings here: Thru and Thru, Tumbling Dice, Live with Me, an upbeat Dead Flowers, When the Whip Comes Down are very well-performed. Rock Me Baby with Angus and Malcolm Young (AC/DC) is awesome! Overall, the song selection is quite strong. The bad news is that the sound kind of blows. Don't get me wrong, the person who parsed the audio out of the videos available on the band's pay-per-view website did a commendable job. But all of the tracks are sourced from audio encoded with lossy compression. If you ever wanted to hear what happens when you compress using lossy technology, listen to the Thru and Thru. This is the clearest example of artifacts and sound degredation that I know of: the cymbals all sound like mechanical jingle bells, that shift from channel to channel (left to right). Curiously, the overall sound is very good, but once you recognize these lossy compression artifacts, you hear them everywhere, and it negatively colours the listening experience. Additionally, the volume levels were too hot in some tracks, so I removed the clipping, though When the Whip Comes Down is still damaged. I also de-clicked the last two tracks, as best I could (without being too destructive), and while these are much better now (you won't blow a speaker from the transient peaks), some clicks are still evident.

I have the front and back covers for this, but short of linking to them from my server (which takes its toll on my bandwidth), I do not know how to upload the images. Any help would be appreciated - thanks. |

I'll send them to you today...
I still would like to upload them here, but I don't know how - is there an ftp adddy, or do you do it another way? |

how did you like it?
the source was kind of a mess - what did you think of my declipping job? How were the levels? I removed some severe clipping, too.
hope you all dig the tunes. |

Quite good! Starting with nice soundboard quality of Don't Stop and Street Fighting Man certainly gave it a nice boost. Volume levels caught my attention on a couple tracks. Tracks 9, 14 and 15 are nice for me as I don't have those shows yet.
The only let down is Tumbling Dice and Everybody Needs Somebody To Love are approx. 25 sec teasers.
Thanks again, Macdaddy for yet another permavine!
