Recorded in front of stage just left of the centre.
(stage sound )

Sound is excellent. (so is the recording!)
The sound at my position was far from good. On some songs there is not a good balance between vocals and music.

XP also made a recording taking the sound from the left hand speaker stack. His recording will be available in a few weeks time as he left after the shows for his holidays.

Artwork is included

Starting as a show with a far from exciting setlist; almost 'a best of...'.
All this changed with Neil at the Grand piano playing Wrecking Ball. Certainly one of the highlights of the evening.
My personal favourite of the evening is the song I have been waiting for, for years: the Electric version of Cowgirl In The Sand!

Neil in a good mood: It was a full moon evening.



I've noticed recently that my recordings including the artwork are sold on the internet, therefor:
MY RECORDINGS ARE MADE BY A FAN FOR FANS.
DO NOT SELL DUTCH MASTERS RECORDINGS
DO NOT BUY DUTCH MASTER RECORDINGS
TRADE FREELY
DO NOT CONVERT THEM TO MP3 FORMAT.
DO NOT UPLOAD ON OTHER TORRENT SITES WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM THE DUTCH MASTERS



As the show reached over 2 hours 15 minutes I decided to make a split over the CDs between Unknown Legend and Wrecking Ball.

ENJOY!
