Really nice MD recording. Very stage-focused, clear, and little crowd interference. MJ's voice and Danny's drums are way out front in the mix. The recording is just a bit loud (as most MD recordings are), and picks up some venue echo, but other than that - very good. Aenema is super-punchy and inspiring.

Flaws common to the master:
Disc 1
Track Transition: 3-4 (slight pop)
Track 1: Two large cuts (the first 2 minutes of the Grudge is cut, and one again at 2:19). 4:37 - skip. A few other small pops & volume variations due to taper adjusting recording settings.
Track 3: 6:43 - small skip
Track 5: 4:49 - skip
Track 7: 6:04, 7:54 - digi-glitches

Disc Two
Track Transition: 1-2 (static)
Track 4: 1:36 - small cut
Track 6: 8:11 - skip
