An excellent recording of the first night in Los Angeles. The music comes through with excellent clarity and very good crispness. The echo due to the venue's acoustics are a bit of a drawback but, still, far from being annoying. Audience noise is audible also during the songs but never drowns out the music. Some stray conversations or cheers by people close to the taper can be heard from time to time. AT the beginning of "All Because Of You" are two seconds of electric distorsions.
