lineage (to the best of my knowledge):
DV camera > DV cassettes > PC > DVD

I acquired this DVD through a ‘trade’, but the authoring was (IMHO!) awful. I therefore reauthored
it using TMPGEnc DVD Author 1.6.23.73 (chapters + animated menu).

The aspect ratio is widescreen although this was not embedded into the original encodes, you’ll have to adjust that on playback.

In extracting the video and audio from the original disc it became apparent that there are a couple of glitches where
a few frames were somehow dropped, I guess during the original authoring from the look of the original VOBS.
I have fixed these as best as I could, but they are (a little) noticeable during ‘Anthem’ and ‘I Tried To Leave You’.
Also the guy who recorded this missed the very opening of ‘I’m Your Man’, likely because he was changing the tape.

That said, he did a pretty good job encoding the video and audio from the tapes.

Artwork (DVD case cover) is included.

Great show with great sound. The latter is rather unusual for this Arena, but not this time. The recording turned out accordingly.
Stunning sound!





Enjoy, let me know how you like it, trade freely, but don`t you dare sell a single note of this recording!!




A personal note:
Ever noticed the striking resemblences of Leonard Cohen and living jazz guitar legend Pat Martino? Almost like lost brothers, the two don`t look exactly alike, but are the same type of elder men.
Both share the same deep and full voice and some spark of Zen.

Clicks removed by hand
Some dropouts fixed
Corrected to true mono
Announcer between tracks 05 & 06 removed, crossfaded back together
Dead space after Track 13 removed
Fade-ins and fade-outs un-done so tracks start and end at full volume (Tracks 14-17)
Speed correction (Tracks 14-17)
Retracking
There was no compression or noise reduction done to these recordings by me, however, it sounds like there was some noise reduction already present on Tracks 14-17.

Thanks to Artery and BriggY for making the raw material available!
