BOB DYLAN : STOP CRYING |
|
Label : Red Sky Records Time : 77:12 Venue : Universal Amphitheatre, Los Angeles, California, USA Date : June 2, 1978 Quality : Audience Recording (A+) Review (Bobsboots) : There were seven performances during the week long 1978 residency at the Universal (one each night). This CD is an excellent quality audience recording of part of the second show (the full show was 26 songs). It would have made an incredible 2 CD set. As it is, it's still one of the best efforts of the year. A more powerful performance than the Budokan LP. The package photos are incredible. It is recorded from a 1978 vinyl LP entitled Life Sentence. Don't let that scare you away, however! There is very little vinyl noise, and Red Sky has tried to EQ the recording to give it a slightly brighter sound than the original vinyl. Pity, though, that a better (non-vinyl) version trades among tape collectors. |
