JON ANDERSON - NEWCASTLE - City Hall - 12th October 2005

There is nothing remarkable about this recording, it was made close to the stage, from a central postion.

The quality is what you would expect from stealth minidisc.

Like most audience recordings, the dynamics vary considerably so amplitude reduction was applied to the applause and such between songs. The amplitude of the music and spoken parts was increased. I have not EQ'd it in any way.

I hope you enjoy it.

Again the shorter set as Distant Thunder [Children Of Light] did not feature.

Before setting off for the border and the two Scottish shows, we decided to go and see Ronnie James Dio at the University.
I recorded it, and it's not for the faint of heart. It can be found at http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=124158 and sounds a bit rough. But it was a good night out.
And so to Edinburgh!
