Music outstanding! Total package unfortunately more than questionable ....

I already wrote a review on this corresponding double-DVD here at Amazon, see there! Musically both concerts are outstanding, especially the magical 1979 concert is simply history and simply one of the best, what the Rockpalast has ever sent (almost by accident).

And yes, the new editions of sound in principle much better, are remastered and re-mastered and stand out clearly from the former only as AC3 present on the single-DVD sound off! This better tone than LPCM sound also on the new DVDs. So far, so good ... Still, unfortunately, I advise these CDs from! Why ...?

Already 2012 appeared as this package, I asked here: "How do you get a 89min. concert on a CD without any cut in ...?" Now I have purchased these CDs but here, even to compare it with the sound of DVDs. The answer to my question, I personally find somewhat outrageous ... and relatively easy to give a closer look also. Since you only have about 80 minutes to complete, you simply had to do only 2 things. Firstly, one has reduced what was possible ... so clapping and "unnecessary" talk or "too long" song starts ... but that saves not necessary 10 minutes a. No, the rest of saves by a speed adjustment ... the pieces you play just faster! Non-linear, sometimes more, sometimes less, but continuous. .Yes, Actually happens here, the pieces run faster than the original. So you just go to the nearly 80 minutes that are only available. I say, the whole atmosphere of this magical concert will be destroyed by those who know the concert earlier and heard a lot, here and there surprised by the brisk pace. People like this may simply not do with such a historic concert! NO !! A NO-GO! Point.

In the second concert had to do all such things ... but it is also here on the CDs, as I have described it to the DVDs, a digitized sound that was visible limited by a limiter. Did you read it once, you can consider the wonderful. As with the ruler the momentum was limited. Too bad, I was hoping that on the CD might not limited the sound was ... not. In this respect I can to the sound here also say exactly what I described in the DVDs (see the best there).

In this respect I would all, where all of this does not really matter and not on a verhunzten because mutilated and untwisted concert bothered, highly recommend these CDs.
All others I would strongly advise against! You is warmly recommended the double DVD and warmly recommended! There, the same tone as LPCM is available and listening to ...

PS By the way, a little something on the edge, which matches the non-round package: Each of the three CDs in this box has its own cardboard cover with Cover. Explain to me please, why is a Mitch Ryder concert photo from the 2004 concert on the cover of the 1978 concert, and - guesses - yes, exactly - the cover of the two CDs from the 2004 concert a Mitch Ryder and Rick bill and Billy Csernits 1979 adorn ... (hm, ok, maybe even all the cover photos 1979, when I so just consider it ....)
