Comments: A nice recording from Paul's brief club semi-acoustic tour in 1991. Given that this was (probably) recorded on an analog deck in what was certainly an overcrowded general-admission setting, this is an outstanding recording. I'm not sure of the generation of my tape, but given the absence of tape hiss, it must be pretty low.

The performance is great fun. I'm sure most avid Paul/Beatles collectors are by now very sick of the scripted between-song banter in the arena and stadium shows; this show catches Paul at his most improvisational. You can tell he's having a great time, and his comments are entirely off-the-cuff. The show is really inspired; entirely acoustic for the first disc and electric for the remainder.

Magix was used to split tracks, and apply light de-hissing. No EQ'ing needed to be done. I'd give the sound quality about an 8 on a 10-scale for audience recordings.
