Brighton Conference Center, Brighton, England
Source Freewill and a Broken String
Media CDR   2 discs
Notes The best Moving Pictures/Exit...Stage Left show out there. This is a smidge better than Anahiem at times, and a hell of a lot better than the Chicago show in seperation and overall clarity with the band, thats how good this show sounds. The mix is perfect, one would swear that this show is definatly a soundboard recording! There is very little audience noise between the songs, and there isn't much taper talk, and the talk that is there isn't distracting at all because the musical signal is way too strong, and overpowering. There is no tape hiss as this is the master tapes, luckily. This is very complete too, and I don't think that there are too many cuts, and the ones that are here are not very noticable at all. The performance is excellent here, too, luckily. Though not on the lines of MSG '81 or the Deeside show, but its much better than the Toronto shows and the Chicago show because it was pretty strong tonight. A must have show, you need it sometime in your collection, and if you don't have it, you don't know what your missing right now!
