Mix of 'ALD' and 'Audience' sources

Comments

Fantastic matrix recording of the last night of four in Chicago (IL, USA). The ALD source sounds pretty good and very powerful although it has the typical scratches that this kind of tapes usually bring. The audience source adds more depth and helps to get a more balanced sound. The show is amazing with an odd setlist, à-la-ZooTV.

There's a little skip at 1:40 in Angel of Harlem.

I got this one from the 'Dimeadozen' torrent tracker. It was uploaded by tripitaka, and these are the comments that appear in the txt file:

'This excellent recording is a mix of a very good audience tape by F.W. and a before rarely circulated IEM recording of that night. Sound quality is excellent, but has also some weak points caused by the typical IEM clicking. A lot of it has been removed or reduced with a slight lost of quality. This is for example notable during the beginning of WTSHNN and WOWY. But still, without clicking it might be more enjoyable than with it. And without questioning it is very enjoyable recording to listen to. It is perhaps one of the best recordings from the Elevation tour. This recording is close to the quality of Birdman's ALD/AUD Mix from the night before and the famous 'Cleveland Tea Party' recording. You can clearly hear Bono's
voice and Larry's drumming. Unfortunately Edge's guitar is sometimes a little bit hard to hear. Crowd noise is almost not present or at least in no way disturbing. It only comes in at the right time.
