Source tape has a couple of brief vertical hold glitches @ start of "Hurricane" on the Soundstage program.
Original soundtrack was given bass boost to 200 Hz/12dB using Audacity 1.2.6.
Audio: 2CH LPCM 16-bit.
Bonus is from same tape as main program and was transferred and authored in the same way.
A wonderful, quality work from the TV show. Picture and sound quality both excellent. Bonus points for the menu options. This DVD almost makes me forget how soaked I was after the show. But it also reminds me how I'd wished for more of the set on the telecast. There were some reviews at the time that suggested Rolling Thunder was phoning it in at the end of the tour (this was the next-to-last performance), but we never got that feeling in Fort Collins, or on this disc. The Hammond thing is a treat, and shows the songwriting progression of 'Hurricane'. Great job Yassou.
