DISTANCE/POSITION:
Position was in the left balcony behind a rail with a narrow window for filming. Filmer zooms in soon after the beginning and remains close up on Dylan with frequent pans to Tony and Bucky.
AUDIO:
Derived from LB-3521: Excellent. No echo, cuts, or clipping. A bit on the harsh side.
LB-3498: Excellent. No echo, cuts, or clipping. Seems to run a bit too slow. Used only for brief fill before "Cocaine Blues"
STEADINESS:
Below average, but filmer manages to capture long stretches.
HEADS/OBSTRUCTIONS:
Filmer had a disadvantageous position, but coped with that by zooming in and panning whenever bodies on the left get in the way. Position favored views of Dylan, Garnier and Baxter. Campbell is seen occasionally, Kemper only partially a couple of times.
FOCUS/COLOR/LIGHT/RESOLUTION:
Rarely out of focus with very good color and resolution.
EDITING:
Except for "Silvio," all songs are complete with the help of stills usually in the transitions between songs.
PERFORMANCE/HIGHLIGHTS/SPECIAL MOMENTS:
Quite a dynamic performance with impressive guitar work by Dylan and Campbell and fine work on the dobro, pedal steel and mandolin by Bucky.
