-always a treat to hear “Blind Willie McTell”
-“Rainy Day Women #12 & 35” sounds very fresh, especially Campbell’s lead

DASH-F RATING FOR MAIN CAMERA (See VIDEO SOURCES for rating of alternate cameras):
DISTANCE/POSITION: 8-15 (left balcony) (excellent position allowed filmer to focus on Dylan with minimal shakes and obstruction; stunning close-ups of Dylan; effective zooming out to show Campbell, Garnier and sometimes Baxter; Kemper mostly hidden behind drum kit)

AUDIO: 13 (very good/excellent LB-6915; vocal a bit on the harsh side, sounded best to disc author on headphones)

STEADINESS: 14 (minimal shakes)

HEADS/OBSTRUCTIONS: 14 (very few obstructions)

FOCUS: 14 (excellent color, tough a tad vivid under red/orange light; adequate light; focus consistently good, even between songs)

EDITING: filled missing parts with clips from alternate cameras, where possible; otherwise, used stills

COOPS2009 NOTES FOR MS-164.msu:
Not only are both these shows well filmed they were brilliant concerts
The band an Bob really COOK,, don't miss em.
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 eventually with my two mates Yassou and Madhasse helping out.

LB NOTES FOR LB-6915:
includes eight bonus tracks from 10/2/97
drop/cut between cdrs
No LB rating, but better than the four B+ sources listed there (disc author found the vocals a bit harsh, but sounded better through headphones)
Please retain this info file and its LB number as a marker for this lossless set
and if you spread it please list it in the description to avoid others getting duplicates
