Review from Bob's Boots : I use the word 'incredible' and 'breathtaking' often to describe recordings. "At times I think there are no words but these to tell what's true" ... but they are never more true nor deserved than here.  The title tells you it's a soundboard recording. It doesn't tell you that it's one of the best you'll ever hear. The performance is a soul-baring masterpiece. The recording sparkles with a perfect blend of crisp vocals on the top, and warm, full sounding instruments. This is not to be missed. The package and photos are nice. Aesthetics are simple and elegant. The only complaint that could be registered is: 'Why doesn't Sony release this amazing show into the hands of a wider audience!?" 

Review from DEEP : An astounding recording, a devastatingly bright, true sound highlighted by the full richness of Bob's vocals, vocas that were strong and engergetic during this show, full of feeling and raw, naked emotion. A seemingly pedestrian setlist is eclipsed by the amazing recoring quality and performances. Essential ; it's a wild ride but enjoyable every step of the way.
