Notes

A decent audience recording. This version is "Revision A" and starts from a slightly better source, courtesy of darkdevoted. Compared to the version shared just a few days ago, this audio has slightly better frequency response, a bit less distortion, more consistent volume and stereo balance, doesn't have a missing segment during Just Can't Get Enough, no strange fade between Dreaming Of Me and The Price Of Love, and the strange low-level hum around 100hz has been cleanly removed without affecting the music. The audio unfortunately has MiniDisc encoding in the lineage, but with frequencies only reaching about 8khz on the recording, the discarded information above 15khz makes no audible difference in quality.

Many thanks to darkdevoted for sharing this version of the audio to re-remaster.
