Comments:
From Pigland East - This tape is complete and with only one minor cut--a very brief tape flip at 44:03 into the second set, which indicates the taper was using a 90 minute cassette. As usual, FRP strives to bring you the best possible sound without destroying the archival value of the source tape by attempting a heavy remastering job.
The audience claps after the 3rd verse during 'Pigs (3DO)' and Roger did not squeal a number. The audience is generally very quiet and respectful, which is a refreshing change from the standard audience recording of this tour. Not a single firework to be heard! David performs an incredible jam during 'SOYCD (Pts. 6-9)'. This is truly a recording of a band playing at its peak.
From Pigland West - I'm listening to the show again. What strikes me the most is the amazing clarity of the recording and the polite and obviously captivated audience. They are like a Japanese audience--quiet when they should be and clapping/cheering where appropriate. Hard to believe they are French (just kidding Pigland Europe!). The performance, I think, is rather uninspired but certainly an excellent and competent one. A bit mechanical, maybe. Does David mess up the words in one of the songs?
Other Comments: So what do YOU think, dear listener? If you get a copy of this release, please feel free to post a short review to the PF fan group of your choice.
Lineage: The lineage for this recording is: Analog Master>DAT(?)>CDR(0)>SHN
Credits: The Big Pig (bigpig@freerangepigs.com) and Free Range Pigs would like to thank the following people for their contributions to this effort:
The Taper(s) The Pentagon Pig for providing Project Coordination and Quality Assurance. Aleksi Manninen for providing us with his awesome Artwork Services. The Hirsute Swine for providing Administrative Services.
And a big thank you to the Big Pig for a masterful job of remastering this one.
Without these guys, none of this would have been possible.
