NOTE: A substantially superior version of the material first released as Oh The Streets of Rome. This version is reportedly cloned from the CDR release Rome '84 Revisited.
DEEP: This new edition presents the show in fuller, more balanced sound than the tinny, thin-sounding original release. This set has more bottom, and while Mick Taylor is still not front and center in the mix he is more "in play." Dylan's vocal sound is extraordinarily clear and defined, and his lyrical improvisations are on dazzling display. The performance as a whole is a joy to behold. A wonderful set.
rmd: A gorgeous presentation. The sound is fantastic, clean and balanced, and the performance is quite impressive, strong and careful though certainly not overly cautious. A very masculine affair from beginning to end; it oozes anger, disdain, and pride. (DM)
