This short but stellar performance has been released before as a soundboard recording on "Best of the Boots 2002" but never in this matrix format. This is a substantial upgrade to this recording. This is a post-production Matrix recording; that is, a mixture of two separate recordings.†The sources are a soundboard minidisc recording and an audience minidisc recording.†

Both of the recordings were good, however, the soundboard recording was missing a lot of the electric guitar (the only instrument on stage not running through the soundboard) and the audience recording lacked some definition.† Combining the two has created the best of both worlds while sacrificing nothing.† All the work was performed in SoundForge 4.5 & 6.0.† There is one brief moment in Track 7 where there was a gap in the audience recording.† Some attempt was made to equalize that section to make it sonically match the recording in total, but youíll find itÖ..

No Max Johnston at this show. (Remember, he pretends he's never heard the Beatles)
