About this recording
Back when I introduced my Weather Report, 1982-06-01 recording, I said that it was probably the best Weather Report recording and concert you had never heard.
I will say the same about this one. This could be the best Zawinul Syndicate recording you've never heard, and after hearing it...might still be the best.
This is a recording and a show where every star in the universe aligned to make an almost flawless recording of a memorable event.

August 31st was a night where every star in the universe aligned to make the perfect recording of the perfect performance, this show absolutely burned the house down.
The playing was so good, so tight, and the vibe was so good this night. The band delivered an incredible performance, and the recording came out great.
The audience was perfectly behaved, and so quiet that you couldn't hear a single word or comment even during the quietest musical passage.

The recording itself is a solid A+ rating. To me, that means it sounds better than a commercial product. This recording is crystal clear, and has a full 60+ decibels of dynamic range.
No equalization or compression was added. I only made sonic edits to remove microphone noise, coughs, and sneezes during the most delicate moments.
Otherwise, this recording is exactly what I captured the night of the show.


Esta grabación y otras dos (FMs) las tengo subidas a Clandestino 2, aún me queda una en la recámara......



Salut,
