* audience source

The basis for the special show is a very nice mono soundboard recording coming from a trade in the early 90's, with a
quite good audience source to fill the gaps. The overall result is a very powerful show, typical of the '80 tour. This is one of the
very last dates of the tour which had started in the UK on March 1980 and the band had reached an optimal quality. This
tour marked the comeback of Peter Gabriel in Italy since the days of Genesis (1975). Tony Levin was replaced by John Giblin
for this leg of the tour because of other committments, notably with Paul Simon band. Excellent show indeed, with a overall
8,5 sound quality. This recording hasn't surfaced often in the trading circuit, so I'm happy to bring that to you.

The editing was quite long. First I had to re-equalise the whole tape and put the right speed between soundboard and audience
(the first source being too fast), then paste the fillers at the right point and increase the overall volume of the SB tape.
The result is a big improvement from the raw source.

Enjoy!
