Wonderful audience recording from Seattle 1977 as the sound quality is simply amazing, so it's very enjoyable for everyone. It comes directly from the master recording and then equalised by Pittrek with Cool Edit Pro. This version covers the complete concert (only God Save The Queen is still missing). It includes Tie Your Mother Down, Stone Cold Crazy and Keep Yourself Alive for the first time. There are many LP bootlegs of this concert which are incomplete. Almost all of them have many clicks and pops, but this pre-LP master recording is totally clean. This version even includes the show opener, the support act performed by Thin Lizzy and those tracks are marked. The front and back covers are both made by Vali. No copy errors. Not from mp3.
Pittrek's comment:
The original master was really heavy in the bottom end, while the LPs sound really clearer. That's why I played with the equalisation a bit in Cool Edit Pro. The result sounds much better to my ears. If you're one of the people who don't like making any changes to the masters, especially equalisation, this remaster is definitely NOT for you. However if you prefer clean sound, enjoy this one. I have also re-edited the tracks, because Jailbreak and Brighton Rock were originally split into 3 parts, and the Rock'n'Roll medley was in one file, now it's split more logical.
