DIFFERENCES & IMPROVEMENTS TO D685.msu:
-filled missing songs and cuts with stills and clips from alternate camera sources.
-different title & track menus

NOTE: Disc 1 uses footage from D103.msu that is missing on D685.msu. Disc 2 is the same as D103.msu (MS-103.msu). Thus, the rolling opening titles and the title menu are marked as D103.msu.

PERFORMANCE/HIGHLIGHTS/SPECIAL MOMENTS:
-1st live acoustic performance of “If Not For You”
-cool country picking by Campbell on “I Am The Man, Thomas”
-Campbell’s multi-instrumentalism on full display
-effective pounding on drums by Keltner on “It's Alright, Ma (I’m Only Bleeding)” &
“Subterranean Homesick Blues”
-Sexton looking as cool a cat as ever
-spooky-sounding “Can’t Wait”
-fine interplay between Sexton on lead and Campbell on slide on “Subterranean
Homesick Blues”
-“Man Of Constant” a very pleasant surprise.

COOPS2009 NOTES FOR MS-179
Another nice film from the Daves,this time cut short by security (boooooo)
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.

DISC AUTHOR’S NOTE FOR D869 (uncirculated PAL edition)
sourced from shared VOB files from an off-master PAL DVD/not listed @dvdylan.com, but would be D869.pal if it were.

DVDYLAN NOTES FOR MS-012/D103.m)
Same Brighton source as on D103 but more complete and transferred from the master tape. Filmer changes position after 'If Not For You'

DISC AUTHOR’S NOTE FOR D103:
D103 is a compilation of seven 2002 UK shows.

LB NOTES FOR LB-11630:
In 5-way comparison these are different recordings based on different crowd at end of d1t2; LB-0250 has the warmest fullest sound, then this; LB-0251, cc LB-0839, and Panasonic 61LB-5221 are less full and less warm, than those; (did not listen to all of this)
