Remaster Quality: This night was the prime source for the official releases. This is off the stage mixing panel with bass and vocals very clean and clear. The guitar and drums are slightly distant but very clear. Newly mastered from a digital copy of a close generation copy of the master tape.

This is one of the very few releases that has put this show in correct order and, most significantly, with the correct pitch. This results in it being spread over two CDs but it accurately reproduces the two sets all-be-it with only a few minutes of "I'm So Glad". It includes the full "Toad" - to my knowledge never before released in complete form. It is clear that the released Stepping Out is not from this night! Sunshine and Stepping are both superior to the official releases.
