General Sound Quality:
The overall sound quality can of course not compete with an official recording, but aside from a few flaws here and there the quality is absolutely okay for a bootleg. Still, there is one major flaw in the first song where the taper had screwed up the recording volume with the result that the overall volume from time index 1:30 to 4:30 is rather low and sometimes boarders on absolute silence. There are also a few knacks here and there, but nothing dramatic that ruins the bootleg as such.
Atmosphere:
The taper has managed to capture both the band and the audience in a way that just fits together.
Good job!
Speeches:
- Track 4: Bruce talks about New York being the spiritual home of Iron Maiden in North America that is only second to London
- Track 5: Bruce adresses audience directly here and there
- Track 6: occassional 'SCREAM FOR ME' screams from Bruce
- Track 7: The BIG rant from Bruce against the media, the music industry etc., he also speaks about downloading music from the net and how Maiden doesn't mind it and that everybody who wants to tape the next song to share it on the internet is free to do so; i.e. the same speech that Bruce presumably held everytime at any show before 'Wildest Dreams'
- Track 9: Introduction to the Clansman: Bruce speaks about freedom and how it is something that is familiar to all Maiden fans who take themselves the freedom to listen to the music they like and who don't care for what the rest of the world is listening to; makes also remarks on William Wallace and the movie 'Braveheart'
- Track 11: Bruce speaks briefly about 'Ludwig van Eddie' and 'his'symphonies (chance is that Eddie had an appearance on stage there)
- Track 12: Early in the song Bruce sings 'New York City In The Dark', nice goodie I'd say
- Track 17: not a song, just last impressions from the audience
----------------
All in all this is really a bootleg that is really fun to listen to!
I recommend it!
PS: I could not verify whether this bootleg is MP3 sourced or not, but according to a staff member from here it is definetly lossless.
