Sound quality on live recordings
« on: September 22, 2018, 07:56:29 AM »
The 2010 tour sounds great
I thought the 2013 tour was a step down sadly,
and the 2015 gig la vary a lot. The indoor gigs sound very good, whilst some of the outdoor gigs do not :/

Thoughts / comments?

Perhaps not under the DTRW section?  ;)

I thought 2010 concerts were probably best.  2013 weren't bad either.  2015 were bloody awful and did the musicians, especially Mark, no favours whatsoever.  The sound out of tune.  The few that they did remaster (Dublin and Manchester were the only two I know of) did sound much better.  I'd happily listen to a good audience recording any day.  Remember some 2005 concerts were recorded too in fairly low quality but a good mix.

Let's hope the 2019 tour has better recordings than the last tour.  I'd even welcome a return to no recording and good ol' bootleg sharing!

The live recordings had his positive things. Having all the recordings we were sure that if one day MK play something new, we would have the chance to listen to it. Nobody can be sure an audience recording would surface... So there are more chances with official recordings than with audience recordings.

By the way. The business that did the recordings doesn't exists anymore so...

2010 recordings are fantastic! My favourite version of Hill Farmer Blues comes from that tour. The bassline on HFB from the 2010.06.28 Live In Amsterdam recording sits so deliciously in the mix....

None is excellent, they are not comparable to sound engineered official live recordings like Alchemy or On The Night, not even close

Some are good, some are horrible, most make the Pensa in Telegraph sound like a 200 euros guitar, enough said

I loved the 2005 tour recording especially the Drum mix, Danny was terrific
If I realised that the chances were slim,
How come I'm so surprised when the tide rolled in
