COOPS2009 NOTES FOR MS-172:
Not only are these shows well filmed but 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-4898:
Track 1 was patched from an other clone of the same recording since my DAT tape had drops. Thank you very much for your great help, Oecourt! Without you this torrent would not be possible.

DIFFERENCES & IMPROVEMENTS TO MS-691.m:
-sound upgraded
-filled missing songs, off-target parts & cuts with stills, where feasible
-different title & track menus

PERFORMANCE/HIGHLIGHTS/SPECIAL MOMENTS:
-great performances of all songs, especially "I Want You" and "Mama, You Been On My
Mind"
-Dylan does a fair bit of mugging and posing
-great crowd sing-along on “Blowin’ In The Wind”
-“Make You Feel My Love” quite moving
-fine acoustic set, especially “Masters Of War”
-Campbell's leads on the rockers, especially "Highway 61 Revisited"
-highly engaged Dylan, mugging and gesturing to crowd frequently/salutes after "Highway 61 Revisited"
-enthusiastic, but respectful crowd

DISTANCE/POSITION: 8-15 left balcony 30˙ (effective zooming; close views of Dylan, Campbell and Garnier, not much Baxter, hardly any Kemper; camera often tilted to the left)

AUDIO: 14 (excellent with minimal crowd chatter)

STEADINESS: 11 (crowd in front presents some control problems)

HEADS/OBSTRUCTIONS: 12 (bodies in front offered a narrow window)

FOCUS: 13 (rich color and excellent light; reds on the vivid sign)

EDITING: stills added where necessary; unfortunately, filmer left time stamp, which cannot be removed (see setlist details)
