This is my first new Masters series video in some time. Looking on DvDylan.com it would appear to not be listed but in fact I have had it since the 80s though only recently thanks to another old friend, Snuffy, in this quality. This is a very easy show to watch, it was a great gig too, check out the crowd at the start of the solo set!! I am hoping Snuffy will be sorting out others so let's encourage hime please. God this takes me back, I'm down the front somewhere but cannot see me!! ENJOY

Video MPREG-2 Video 720 x 576, 25 fps. ratio 4.3 PAL
Audio Dolby digital 48000 Hz, stereo, 256 kb/s

This one will not be appearing on DIME as it contains a few tracks they are unhappy about tracks that were released on the "Real Live" album (not this recording of course!)
Wembley will follow for the same reasons.

Many of you knew Dave Dingle and know he died earlier this year. I am pleased to say that his video archive has passed to me with the express plan of preserving things the same way as before. Everything transferred direct from master to PC to you. Pass it on, we lost Dave but the videos we can preserve. I will be crediting all his stuff as "The Two Daves".

Remember even if you have some of the Daves films already that at best your copies will be 2 generations poorer than anything in the Masters series, so get em all. These will be with original sound though many will feature as sound upgrades with my two mates Yassou and Madhasse helpinng out.

Enjoy


NB: Rating is based on both technical quality and quality of performance, the latter of which is terrific.

DIFFERENCES & IMPROVEMENTS OVER D027.msu:
-2nd camera used to fill cuts on songs 1-15 and entire missing song ("It's Alright, Ma)
-different top and track menus
-some minor editorial adjustments

PERFORMANCE/HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS/SPECIAL MOMENTS:
-extremely enthusiastic crowd
-lengthy and varied setlist
-energized Dylan performance with lots of BobTalk and lyric changes:
-appearance by Carlos Santana on final five songs
-excellent guitar work by Mick Taylor
-bemused look on Mick's face as Dylan blew harp during "Blowin In The Wind"
*Thank you. Somebody just got knocked right out of their socks. I must say this is the first English speaking audience we've played for now for quite a while. It sure is pleasant to do. (before "Maggie's Farm")
*Thank you! I realize I changed some of the lyrics on that last song. I think it's still recognizable though. (after "Simple Twist Of Fate")
*Ladies and gentlemen you've been a very kind and wonderful group of people. I wanna introduce the band to you now. On keyboards, Ian McLagan. On the bass guitar, Greg Sutton. On the drums, Colin Allen. On guitar, Mick Taylor. (at the end of "Like A Rolling Stone")

DISTANCE/POSITION: 2 cams: 11 & 5 (left floor 10˙ mostly on Dylan with panning to other players; left stands 45˙) (Filmers did a great job keeping focus on stage despite being in the middle of a rowdy crowd; effective panning to guitarists during solos)

AUDIO: 12 (a bit on the tinny side; mostly used audio extracted from D027.asu, which is the same as LB-5390; unfortunately LB-5390 and the MK audio ran faster than the video, hence the need for the extracted audio; the MK audio was used for clipped audio on "Every Grain Of Sand" missing on the extracted audio and LB-5390)

STEADINESS: 10 & 12 (filmers dids an admirable job working in a rowdy crowd)

HEADS/OBSTRUCTIONS: 10 & 11 (shot between crowd and from left standsand mostly on-target)

FOCUS/COLOR/LIGHT: 13 & 11 (good-excellent color and light; sharpness quite good for a tape transfer)

EDITING: 2nd camera allowed for songs 1-14 to be complete (see setlist details)

Sincere thanks for filming and releasing the master video to THE TWO DAVES & ANONYMOUS.
