Notes: 
Ticket price: £8.00 (adv) ... BARGAIN!!!!! 

This old show of mine fell off the tracker some time ago & has recently been requested ... so here it is... 

So it's now 7.5 years since the 1st time I first saw Joe live & recorded this 1st ever gig in the UK ... after this show I was well & trully hooked ... 'though recent ticket prices (!!! How Much !!!) have put me off going to see him on his last couple of UK tours. 

This is a brand new mastering from my original JB3 wav file. It has turned out very nice and IMHO a wee bit nicer than my 1st go at it back in 2005. If you already have the original from 2005 then you must decide if you also need this latest version. 
Checkout the samples in the thread below to hear how it sounds. 

A great performance by this version of the band (with Eric Czar - Bass; Kenny Kramme - Drums) plus the fact that this was Joe's first ever English show make this a worthy addition to any collection (if you don't already have it). 

For those interested - basic details of the new mastering applied to my original JB3 recording (using Wavelab6 & Har-Bal) are as follows: 
(a) Left & Right channel EQ Matching 
(b) EQ / Compression / Limiting (-0.6dB max) 
(c) fade ins & outs 
(d) track split 

A note for any finicky audiophiles out there: 
Mastering has been done to polish the raw master recording with the aim of enhancing the listening experience. If you prefer virgin recordings, unspoiled by any such amateur 'dabbling' then do not join in on this one. Be warned now ... I don't want any whinging! ;-)
