Review:

This is another very nice upgrade over the bootleg version. This version is
much longer than the other one... 148 minutes compared to the 134 minutes on
the bootleg. There's a certain amount of hiss but very tolerable... there is
also a lot of the announcer in there and all the tune-ups are there!
Sound is VG/VG+. Great setlist, probably the last AD ever performed. - PL
