The quality of this recording could be really good if it wasn't for an annoying static distorsion audible all the time. Also, heavy volume fluctuations occur every few seconds during the first two songs. Apart from that, clarity and crispness are good to very good, only marred by the venue's acoustics. "Out Of Control" sets in shortly before Edge's solo, with the audio quality improving gradually from muddy to the final level. Audience is audible but not intrusive during the songs. "A Day Without Me" and "New Year's Day are cut at the end and at the beginning, respectively, due to an edit. The first ten seconds of "New Year's Day" are marred by volume fluctuations and some tape pitch problems, resulting in squealing distorsions.
