COOPS2009 NOTES FOR MS-137
Second night of his third and final residency (so far) at Hammersmith. Bob clearly wants to play though and seems reluctant to finish many of the songs.
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.

DIFFERENCES & IMPROVEMENTS OVER D502/D502.su:
-used file sourced from the master PAL tape (D502/D502.su are NTSC transfers from PAL tape copied on a standalone DVD player)
-used superior Legendary Taper A audio (fewer a/v sync adjustments needed)
-more natural selection of stills
PERFORMANCE/HIGHLIGHTS/SPECIAL MOMENTS:
-Dylan’s extensive use of the acoustic guitar
-Dylan’s thumb + forefinger acoustic and electric guitar technique
-highly emotional singing, especially on “Jim Jones” and “Tomorrow Night”
-tasty harp on “Don't Think Twice, It's All Right” and “Simple Twist Of Fate”
-terrific leads by JJ Jackson on the rockers
-spooky performance of “I And I”
-Bucky Baxter’s lap steel guitar on “Highway 61 Revisited”
-rather distracting special effects added by filmer (see Disc 2 setlist details)
DISTANCE/POSITION: 3➝5 (focus mainly on Dylan with some zooming and limited panning; drummer WW often seen/whole band seen when zoomed out/some nice shots of BB and JJ, WW and Dylan)
AUDIO: 15 (superior LB-5884 recording)
STEADINESS: 12 (filmer kept it admirably steady)
HEADS/OBSTRUCTIONS: 13 (virtually unobstructed)
FOCUS: 12 (excellent color and adequate light; color sometimes on the vivid side; focus soft and grainy on close-ups)
EDITING: stills used for missing parts; some a/v adjustments made; tape had some static and vertical control glitches; filmer incorporated some distracting special effects (see Disc 2 setlist details)
