One of highest quality recordings I have in my entire audio collection, this is a must for any Metallica fan. There is no doubt that this was recorded on a DAT soundboard. The recording itself is unbelievable. However, since there are no audience mics, there is zero audience noise (even when James requests shouting). As a result, the band's instruments are crystal clear; so clear, that you can hear Lars resting his drumsticks on the snare!
This is the only Metallica show I have to reach the 3 disc level. The Thing That Should Not Be has a few slight dropouts, but I confirmed with someone that owns the original bootleg that the error is supposed to be there. Disposable Heroes is a different version, with Kirk's mini-solo before the chorus not being played, and one other change which I can't remember. Seek and Destroy lasts nearly 20 minutes. The last couple seconds of Last Caress are cut.
While many of you may not like this at first glance because it isn't a Burton-era show, it's still a great performance. I reccommend this to anybody interested in Metallica.
