COOPS2009 NOTES ON MS-215:
Like Patras a short part of this video circulated previously, at the time I thought that was all there was, clearly I was wrong and whilst this is hardly the Daves finest moments its not bad (Its better than Patras). Curious that the original cassettes don't appear to exist, just the U-Matic master. well here it is.

DIFFERENCES/IMPROVEMENTS OVER FROM MS-215/D2019:
-sound upgraded
-cuts & obstructed parts filled with stills
-different title and track menus
-cut fragment of “Lakes of Pontchartrain”

PERFORMANCE/HIGHLIGHTS/SPECIAL MOMENTS:
-feisty Greek crowd
-Dylan in strong expressive voice
-fine harp on “Don't Think Twice, It's All Right”
-great to see Van on stage with Dylan
-stinging leads by Smith
-cameramen on stage during “Highway 61 Revisited”
-bungled start to “Every Grain Of Sand”
-the only acoustic version of “Every Grain Of Sand” during The Never-Ending Tour (as
of rev. date); not the best performance
-second of only two performances of “House Of Gold” during The Never-Ending Tour (as
of rev. date)
-first performances of “Crazy Love” and “And It Stoned Me” w/duets w/Van Morrison

DISTANCE/POSITION: Center floor (mostly knees up, but blocked by heads on bottom part of screen; focus on Dylan Parker seen behind Dylan; pans to Smith; fewer views of Garnier often blocked by body on right)

AUDIO: 13 (chatty crowd; upgrade source ran 0.50% faster than video soundtrack)

STEADINESS: 7 (unsteady throughout, but watchable)

HEADS/OBSTRUCTIONS: 7 (position in midst of crowd far from ideal)

FOCUS: 8 (light adequate/color good/focus soft)

EDITING: most songs clipped & cut/filled w/stills; some brief cuts & stills used to maintain a/v sync)
