As you can see above there are some minor issues, but all in all the sound quality

is good and I think it's an enjoyable listen. Although I'm probably a bit biased

as I was there in person. I received this as two audio discs straight from the taper

himself. There was no "cut-off point" for splitting the recording into two discs and

I decided to leave it that way, so it's up to you to decide where you want to split it.

EAC logs are included.
