Overall, there are some good versions of their tunes here, so I'd imagine there are more at the other venues they played. I hope they release a live compilation or something along those lines.

Have you seen the full concert of San Fran night 1 on youtube? It is a pretty decent clip.

I'm biased because I was at the show, but yeah, the clip itself is decent for an audience recording

Glad you got to see them! I never got the chance, but got to see Soundgarden.

"The quarter-inch tapes got lost," says Ament. "The only way we could've used the original mixes would have been pulling it off a CD, which would have been inferior. Brendan really didn't mess with the levels, but he just pulled back a bit on the effects and reverb. The new mix is just a bit crisper. The way we listen to music is so different than 25 years ago. People have gotten used to so much clarity on the top end, and I think he really brought a lot of that out."

Crossed my mind today - the "lost" quarter-inch tapes were probably in the Universal warehouse that burned up in 2008 (that we found out about this week). TOTD = A&M = Universal. Kinda curious if the guys were given an explanation as to how the tapes were "lost". (From press reports, it sounds like a lot of artists were given the runaround.)

Listening now.

This is a monster of an album.

I wish PJ would cover Reach Down regularly.

The two tracks released on the Cornell box set sound so good:



I wonder why didn't Eddie sing Hunger Strike with them even once.

Times Of Trouble is so fucking good.

That last part of:

But if somebody left you out on a ledge
If somebody pushed you over the edge
If somebody loved you and left you for dead
You got to hold on to your time till you break
Through these times of trouble


Still gives me chills everytime.

I bet I have listened to this full album more than any other full album.

In the past 10 years for sure.
