Original Comments
Pretty good sound quality. I think Portobello Belle is missing from this recording.


Additional comments (2024)
This revision is based on the "raw" source of this recording. It is not the Enlight remaster.
According to Enlight's notes, he speed adjusted the entire recording by 1.67% when actually only
the first 5 tracks should have been adjusted by that amount.

From dime's history, longway74 seeded the raw version of this recording on April 11, 2014 from their
CD rips. While I don't have that version to compare, I believe it is the same audio as the "raw" source
that this is based upon, just different CD ripping lineage. I'm not sure where the audio originally
comes from. longway74 said that their CDs came from JvT (oneverybootleg), so perhaps that is the same
for this CD version. I was going to seed this raw, but the fixes were not very hard.

The revisions are as follows:
-Original audio was running fast, so speed adjusted by 1.6% for the first 5 tracks and 0.3%
for the remainder
-Phase corrected the channels by 4-5 samples
-Automatically balanced channel levels
-seamlessly removed 2 sections of a few seconds (each) of repeated audio between tracks 9 and 10
-no EQ or other processing
