PERFORMANCE/HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS/SPECIAL MOMENTS:
-very powerful acoustic performances w/emphasis on early songs
-enthusiastic audience

DISTANCE/POSITION: 11 (Left balcony 50˙ filmer had a narrow window through the crowd, but managed to stay focused waist-up on Dylan; Bucky and Tony usually in picture with plenty of Larry; few sightings of Kemper; few close-ups)

AUDIO: 14 (excellent ebr recording/disc author disagrees with LB rating of A- and finds this to be better than either LB-8586 or LB-5043)

STEADINESS: 10 (tough position and crowd movement led to off target parts; first 2-1/2 songs unusable)

HEADS/OBSTRUCTIONS: 10 (see above)

FOCUS: 10 (low light affects sharp focus, especially in red spectrum, most notably during "Hard Rain"; colors good)

EDITING: extensive, especially on Disc 1 where first 2-1/2 songs required all stills (see setlist details)
