The KTS boot was pretty much the de-facto recording of this show for many years. I'm embarrassed that I haven't heard JWR's remaster, but the KTS version is still my favorite - the official recordings always sounded a bit thin to me by comparison.


Btw - I do think it's absurd that there's not an official complete widely-available release of this show. I'm sure it's some issue with Sony (or the band figures "it's out there") - but, in my years, I've been amazed by how many random folks have memories of this show from the radio broadcast. Arguably the one real mass-appeal release that's still sitting in the archive.

There's no Garden, State of Love and Trust, Black, Alive, Not For You, WMA, or Blood.

This version of Black is the definitive live performance of Black (unplugged be damned).

My $.02

Agreed.

I always loved the way it was just guitar and vocals for the bridge.

I honestly don't know which one I have but I love it.

Wasn't this the official release?

It doesn't have the Vitalogy tracks (SB, BM) or Sonic Reducer...but, other than that...sounds quality is pretty good.

My preferred version....

It's nice, but it's not "complete" or "unedited" as they claim. Download the SRS version.

Yeah, I know but it's a release that I've always lusted after and finally bought it earlier this year

Plus it's only between song banter that's cut, mainly focused on what the band members are wearing if I recall correctly!

I just realised that I used to have this bootleg - only realised during some of the bits of banter in between songs... Pissed I don't have it anymore

I had copies of this show. Fight For Your Cause, one of those Unauthorised jobbies plus the dissident singles.

Fight is probably my desert island PJ cd.

I believe it's the SRS version I have? IDK. I love it and jammed out to it today. I wish they would play Sonic Reducer more.

I listened to the SRS version of this last night -- this really is just an insanely good show, almost every song a highlight version. The "WMA" with Doug Pinnick just floors me every time.

other than the unplugged and the TV appearances this was the first live pearl jam I ever heard. I have vivid memories of listening to the broadcast in my room, recording on maxwell tapes and panicking about losing music during a switch. I was utterly blown away.

It was also a few years before I knew sonic reducer was a cover.

This sounds eerily similar to my experience.

And anytime a concert was broadcast, I had similar panic type nerves worrying about switching the tape. I distincitly remember doing this for the Berlin 96 show, so much so that I think I cut off side A around the 35 minute mark. Can't be too careful.

Vitalogy was played on the radio a few weeks before the formal release and I missed the first 90 seconds of last exit. I played the shit out of that tape

You kids today don't know how good you have it

Hi, what's the SRS version and anyone still have it?

Also, do the KROQ, KOME, and AUS Promo 2-CD versions all sound the same? Out of these three, which do folks prefer? Thanks.

The "complete" promos that I've downloaded (and purchased) are all lossy, which leads me to believe that perhaps we are dealing with some kind of bootleg and not an authentic promo?

The Australian promo is good and lossless but has some editing between tracks.

The SRS...I dunno. A lot of those have fallen out of favor with me. If a "complete" lossless version were to surface, I would do it over again.

Can still be downloaded via here

Cool, anyone know, which is better, SRS, AUS Promo CD, or SV016? (http://www.guitars101.com/forums/f145/p ... 90206.html)
