Note from AB:
I'm unaware of any other footage of this night existing, but thankfully they got what really matters! Just like all other versions of this footage, the first and last chapter songs begin in progress. Songs 1, 2 & 3 completely synchronized with upgraded 441s audio. Song 4 partially upgraded because the master cassettes did not capture all of this song. The remainder is seamlessly crossfaded back to the original camera audio. Despite being handheld stealth footage on 1980s equipment, epic performances of ÒOrdinary PeopleÓ and ÒSixty To ZeroÓ are what this is all about. The original camera audio, even though it was in mono and clipping a good deal of the time, wasn't too bad. I included that as well (as chapter 5), but the upgrades have far greater dynamic range and clarity. The stereo 441s audio really open up the sound making this footage significantly more enjoyable. - Alan Bershaw
