DEEP: Another striking package from the folks at Dandelion,
this one a color, glossy 20 page booklet full of some terrific
"Temples In Flames" pics and a long essay. Some of the
pictures have to be seen to be believed and portray Bob in both
flattering and unflattering terms. A wonderfully packaged set that
makes all prior 1987 Eurotour CDs take a seat far in the rear to
this embarassment of riches. The complete Wembley is presented in
oh-so-fine sound and the filler just takes it to another level. A
near-perfect overview of the latter stages of Europe '87.
rmd: An absolutely stunning set with gorgeous, professional packaging. The sound quality of the main show is simply outstanding. Sound quality on the filler varies from outstanding to just good, with nothing unpleasantly bad. The performances are occasionally uneven, but still amount to a hoard of senseless riches. (DM)
rmd: Overall, a step backward from the great 1986 shows . In comparison, these renditions are flat and halfhearted.
