Media FLAC   2 discs
Tech Notes this concert and I can honestly say I've seen anything better before or since. I recieved this recording of the entire show shortly afterwards from someone kind enough to send it to me for just blanks and postage. The sound is pretty good for an audience recording.

This version might have been edited (by myself) from the original cds I recieved. I say "might" because it's been a quite a while since I listened to the recording. I know I have the originals and I know I edited the original and burned copies of them. I could only find one pair of cds of this show (didn't search my entire collection since I don't have access to all of it atm). I don't know which one this is since neither of the copies were labelled (just shows how important it is to do it properly).

I'm pretty sure this is the edited version.. The difference from the original is:
1) The volume has been increased slightly (the original had a very low volume but it could be increased quite a bit without clipping).
When listening to this version the volume was alright, so I'm guessing this is "my version" of this recording.
2) Applause and such has been moved after tracks instead of before them. If I'm not mistaken the original had a few tracks that didn't start until 1-2 minutes in.
Belew and/or Fripp (can't remember who) screwed up Red twice (Red In The Face Parts I & II) but got it on the third attempt. I'm fairly sure these bloopers were part of the Red track at first.
