Comments (as they came with the files)
A very nice recording. The sound quality is excellent and it's a stereo recording. I'd give it an Ex- since there are some clap happy folks near the taper, but not to the point of distraction. The taper also bumps the mics a few times. Within 10 seconds the fireworks start! Did someone plan this? Do I detect the hand of David Gilmour in this? It's almost maddening thinking of it from Roger's perspective. The fireworks start again in the beginning of Dogs, then again in PoTW2. Roger lovingly calls this guy a "shitbag". The performance is electric! Dave's solo during Pigs 3DO is amazing! There are about a hundred highlights during this show in my opinion, but you'll have to check it out for yourself.

Luis Comments:
Comments great great sound... it sounds better than 'Sheep Independence Day' to my ears (that ones comes from this 2nd gen too apparently), and the show is amazing, Roger is very upset here with the firecrackers (he called 'shit bag' to some person).. you have to get this one. Now this is my favourite show from 1977! It sounds better than the 1st gen, brighter and fuller in ambience, so this is definitely the version to get.
