57 mins
Pal 4.3 Ratio
Mpeg-2 720x576
25 fps, 7500 kb/s
Audio AC3 STEREO

Sound still in need of sound upgrade though quite listenable, but great show to watch.
Shame the audience are not a bit less boisterous, the Daves cut several tracks as they attempt a better view; not very widely circulated and never as complete as this before.

2 CDRs: 46 min/40 min
very good to excellent sound; has tv band drop/cut between cdrs
LB-8324 is the same recording based on same clapping wavs and crowd at end of d1t1; in comparison [this] has a fuller sound and [that] has more hiss


BOB DYLAN
Wembley Arena
London, England, UK
June 8, 1989
DVDylan ID #1179.msu
Masters Series #124 (DVDylan ID #1179)

5-point scale: 3+/4+/3-/2+/4-
15-point scale: 9/12/7/6/10 (avg. 8.75 C+)
Right floor 30˙
1:24:57:06
PAL

PERFORMANCE/HIGHLIGHTS/SPECIAL MOMENTS:
-spirited performances, especially "Knockin' On Heaven's Door"
-emotional performance of "In The Garden"
-relatively rare performance of "When Did You Leave Heaven?"
-nice acoustic set with "Barbara Allen" a highlight
-cool harp playing on "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" and other songs

DISTANCE/POSITION: 9 (Right floor 30˙; filmer was in the midst of a raucus crowd but kept a fairly steady hand; rare panning to other players/some zooming; mostly Dylan full body to waist up w/Parker often seen behind him; very brief captures of Smith & Aronson

AUDIO: 13 (very good recording; had to be slowed 0.5% to sync w/video)

STEADINESS: 7 (filmer did a fairly good job given his less than ideal position)

HEADS/OBSTRUCTIONS: 6 (heads and bodies get in the way but filmer does a good job framing Dylan)

FOCUS: 10 (acceptable color and light except on acoustic numbers; focus usually soft)

EDITING: clips, cuts and missing songs filled with stills; frames had to be occasionally removed before songs to maintain a/v sync (see setlist details)
