This is an excellent recording that largely tracks, but does not entirely match, https://etreedb.org/shn/149728. Both recordings have the same little warble at the start of Cissy Strut, for example. Both are partial recordings, but different from each other. SHINID 149728 runs 108 minutes and contains Little Wing, Baby Baby, Riding With The King and Golden Road, which are missing here. It also runs about 2.5% slow compared to this recording and was normalized and is too loud. It is missing the first 40 seconds of stage and crowd noise and has only 50 seconds of Rigor Mortis, which is in a different place than here.

On the other hand, this recording runs only 79 minutes and is missing the songs identified above. It has the complete Rigor Mortis, and the beginning of The Core is not cut. It does not sound like it has been EQ'd or otherwise played with and it runs truer to pitch. For these reasons, this is likely a partial C(1) or something close, and SHNID 149728 probably has at least one more generation (due to the cuts and bad pitch).

Whatever the back story may be, it's a fine recording and a good listen.

Enjoy!
