DVD AUTHOR’S NOTES:
1. This item incorporates footage from D886.vcd, which is incomplete and only includes the first ten songs. For the other songs see D243.msu.
2. Regarding D243.m/MS-106: The source used for this upgrade was widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio. The original tape source may have been 4:3 aspect ratio, but this project kept the 16:9 widescreen.
3. Regarding D886.vcd: The source used for this upgrade was standard 4:3 aspect ratio. It was converted to widescreen 16:9 to match the other source. This resulted in some degradation of the image.

DIFFERENCES IMPROVEMENTS OVER D243.msu/MS-106.msu:
-missing parts of Disc 1 filled with D886.vcd footage (especially important because most
of “Solid Rock” and “It's All Over Now, Baby Blue” are missing from D243.msu/MS-106.msu)
-different title and track menus
-different motion clips for top menu and 1st track menu

PERFORMANCE/HIGHLIGHTS/SPECIAL MOMENTS:
-magnificent performance
-remarkable setlist nicely combines older and newer songs: “Solid Rock” a standout
-plenty harp
-scintillating leads by Campbell & Sexton
-chilling backup vocals by Campbell & Sexton

DISTANCE/POSITION: high right balcony 30˙/left balcony 50˙ (effective panning and zooming; all players seen)

AUDIO: 15 (LB-11641 excellent EBR recording))
