With hardly any time passed since the previous versions of these shows surfaced
(from Quick Trick) we now have another set to enjoy. Taken from an entirely new
source and with audio worked on by Confusion this is an improvement overall. Not
that the QT releases were bad at all (far from it) but these recordings just
have a little more bite to them and feel much more well rounded. Confusion
nearly always do a good job of tidying up and mastering their recordings and
this is no exception. The band are clear throughout, vocals sharp and to the
front and a nice balanced bass make for a very enjoyable recording and I must
say it sounds very solid booming out my big ol' speakers.
I don't need to say too much about the shows themselves. Probably one of the
better bunch from the tour (Prince generally steps it up for the Dutch crowd)
it's fairly standard tour fair as far as song choices go but, as has been
evident this summer, everything seems to be being performed with a new vigour
and excitement that, despite my early reservations, has kept me entertained to
no end these past couple of months. So whether you've had this set already or
not, I'd highly recommend you add these versions to your collection. A good team
effort all round.
