Sound upgraded with excellent Crystal Cat audio.
Compared to D078, this source is closer, clearer and also complete.
It also lacks the intrusive time counter on D078 as well as the numerous clips and cuts.
this is a top rated DVD. certainly worth tracking down. released on 2 DVDs, thank goodness, in the interest of preserving quality. thanks to all filmers, authors, and tapers who do what it takes to bring out the goods in best available condition.

If 1995 is my favourite NET year, then 2000 is surely close behind. One of the hidden gems of the DVDylan catalogue is D077 from Birmingham 20 Sept ‘00 and the DVD I’ve revisited perhaps more than any other in the past six months is D236.su (Portsmouth 25 Sept ‘00 - ooh, that Hard Rain!). So the best thing I can say about D667.su is that it’s in every sense a companion piece to D236.su: from the same week of the same tour, same uneven but intermittently breathtaking film-quality (presumably from the same guy using the same camera - thanks, whoever you are), gorgeous upgraded soundtrack and, key to all, of course, same consistently rock solid performance. What else can you show me?
As for the signature cine projector-motif menu, it’s become associated lately with all that’s best in these fan-made DVD projects, a sort of latterday Trademark of Quality (anyone remember those blue and orange TMQ boots of yesteryear?) and deservedly, quite rightly so. Just one thing, though - is it really necessary to put shows like this out on two discs? We’ve just had a fine upgrade of Cardiff 6 May ‘02, running 135 minutes, on one, with no ill-effects that I can see, so why can’t this earlier Cardiff, or Wilkes Barre ‘02, or Amherst ‘99, be singles too?
Thanks to Y and the ever-generous Madame Butterfly. Hope Cardiff ‘06 is as good for the two of you as this top-notch ‘00 re-wind is for the rest of us. Five stars.
