A very good soundboard recording, with FM patches. The silver CD bootleg [http://www.discogs.com/Depeche-Mode-Touring-The-Angel-Almost-Acoustic/release/4383826 Depeche Mode - Touring The Angel Almost Acoustic (Grabbing Hands CID 012)] was used for 2 minutes and 10 seconds at the beginning of [[Personal Jesus]] as well as for patches at the beginning of each song. Track 14 (the interview) is also sourced from the bootleg. The core of the recording is a soundboard or pre-FM source. It's rather loud with little dynamic range, but all of the FM broadcasts are similarly loud.
A flawless pre-FM soundboard recording. There is not a whole lot of dynamic range, unfortunately, but the quality still bests the various FM broadcast recording variants.


Many tracks were reworked as acoustic versions, so this recording is a must-have. The backing tape crashes during [[I Feel You]] and it takes a few minutes for the band to restart. This concert also had the first performance of [[Shake The Disease]] since 1990.
The first three tracks are performed in a somewhat stripped down, acoustic format, similar to several other tracks performed during [[1998-12-12 KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas, Shrine Auditorium, Los Angeles, CA, USA|DM's last performance at KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas in 1998]]. Peter Gordeno plays bass during [[Personal Jesus]] and [[Walking In My Shoes]].
 
There are backing tape issues encountered at the start of [[I Feel You]], and the song was restarted after a couple moments. This concert had the first performance of [[Shake The Disease]] by Depeche Mode since 1990 and in a new acoustic format, although Martin played it on [[:Category:2003 "A Night With Martin L. Gore"|his 2003 solo tour]] in an acoustic format.
 
Chris Martin of Coldplay, who peformed immediately before Depeche Mode, said prior to their last song: "Please enjoy Depeche Mode and give them the respect they deserve as one of the forefathers of modern times".

Notes

A flawless pre-FM soundboard recording. There is not a whole lot of dynamic range, unfortunately, but the quality still bests the various FM broadcast recording variants.

The first three tracks are performed in a somewhat stripped down, acoustic format, similar to several other tracks performed during DM's last performance at KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas in 1998. Peter Gordeno plays bass during Personal Jesus and Walking In My Shoes.

There are backing tape issues encountered at the start of I Feel You, and the song was restarted after a couple moments. This concert had the first performance of Shake The Disease by Depeche Mode since 1990 and in a new acoustic format, although Martin played it on his 2003 solo tour in an acoustic format.

Chris Martin of Coldplay, who peformed immediately before Depeche Mode, said prior to their last song: "Please enjoy Depeche Mode and give them the respect they deserve as one of the forefathers of modern times".

A good audience recording from this concert can be found at Source 2.
