Notes

An excellent sounding soundboard-quality recording of Dave's fourth solo concert.

For the first seven songs, Dave's vocals are panned to the right channel, but they become centered approximately one minute into A Little Piece. This is likely a mixing issue, with both stereo phase alignment and the possibility of phase cancellation from an inverted channel ruled out.

All songs, except A Little Piece, have a frequency response going up to 22kHz and are suspected to be from a pre-FM source.

Strangely, A Little Piece reaches only 15kHz and appears to be lossy, possibly due to being sourced from an FM broadcast recorded to a MiniDisc. Despite this, it is nearly seamlessly patched into the recording, and the quality remains quite good. The results from auCDtectTaskManager support this conclusion.

Originally, this recording was split across two CD-Rs. However, there was duplicated audio across the discs, allowing for the CD split to be seamlessly removed without any audio loss.
