Notes

Cropredy
Oxfordshire
England

audience
Centre-stage, 60m from barrier.

In spite of recording with a good margin at 24bit depth, the recording is compromised by excessive sub-bass and a limited/clipped PA, of which the latter gives a neat haircut to the amplitude and a ruination to the sound. This recording suffers from wind drift effects and the main PA source, rather than the FOH speakers.
