As it's usually the case with most of the 1996 material, the shows are amazing, but the quality of the recordings don't do it justice at all. This one is sort of inbetween. It's not great and some (what I believe to be mechanically sourced) problems with the last tape lead to the sound quality fading even further near the end. However, it's not down at the bottom of the quality spectrum like the recordings from Stuttgart, Manchester or the Milton Keynes shows. There was some dullness to the sound I just couldn't shake off entirely, but I believe to have gained quite a bit more clarity in comparison to the versions around. Since the audio had some slight distortions (which got more noticeable as the clarity improved), I made a second attempt where I spread the sound out very far and remixed it with the first one to distract from that issue a bit. If you're a fan of this tour, you're certainly good to go here!
The band was in a nice shape and the crowd's enthusiasm certainly fueled their performance even more! Jon's confidence in his vocals seemed to grow as the night progressed and Richie's guitar tone was really nice, even though it seemed he had forgotten the solo melody of one of the newer tracks entirely :D
