DVD PRODUCTION PROCESS:
Produced by yassou on a MacBook Pro running Lion 10.7.5 and Apple software.
Audio and video assets edited in iMovie 6.0.3; authored, multiplexed and burned to VIDEO_TS folder in iDVD 7.1.2 (Professional Quality 2-pass variable bit rate encoding)
NOTE: It's tempting to give this a '5' based on the tremendous performance, which is on a par with the other great performances of the March 1995 European Tour. However, the technical glitches, shakiness and obstructions bring it down a notch.

PERFORMANCE/HIGHLIGHTS/SPECIAL MOMENTS:
-Dylan humming @~2:52 during instrumental break of "Crash On The Levee"
-excellent harp on several songs, especially "Crash On The Levee," Just Like A Woman" and "Positively 4th Street"
-slowed-down delivery of the famous last couplet of "Positively 4th Street"
-tender readings of "Mr. Tambourine Man" and "Boots Of Spanish Leather" w/tasty slide work
by BB and acoustic guitar by JJ.
-"Here's a new song we got out." - "Dignity"
DISTANCE/POSITION: 12 (the filmer had to shoot between the crowd in front, but did a yeoman's job maintaining focus on Dylan w/effective zooms to Bob and pans to band members when feasible)
AUDIO: 14 (excellent audio source; crisp vocals and good balance)
STEADINESS: 9 (often shaky, but plenty of steady stretches)
HEADS/OBSTRUCTIONS: 9 (obstructions were often evident, but plenty of unobstructed stretches)
FOCUS: 11 (focus and color were generally good)
EDITING: The shot was often obstructed and shaky and the source DVD had some technical glitches, but the author avoided adding fills except for extended problems or a/v sync issues.
