DEEP: Very nice soundboard recording of a complete Dylan (23 tracks)/Petty (8 tracks) show. Not up to the soundboard standard of Marseilles '93, mind you, but very good nonetheless. I favor the acoustic and mid-tempo performances from this show; the rocking songs Bob speeds through as if a 33rpm played at 45. The excellent keyboard work by Benmont Tench is a highlight. Let me also add that I find Mike Campbell to be a very distinctive guitar player and one who "did right" by the songs with his playing. The bonus trax are from audience sources, with no duplication from the Shoreline show. Quality is decent, though by no means great. Well worth picking up. The packaging, to be blunt, sucks.

rmd: Sound quality is substandard. (Masato Kato).
