To me, GF have just copied the BITV release & boosted the sound. Along with that, the hiss is also louder. If it wasn’t for that, this would be a great sounding release.I still find it an enjoyable listen.There are better quality recordings out there for sure. Personally, i think Milwaukee(Doms) & Quebec (Pierres) are best of the tour. Now if only GF would track those down…

The Side 4 songs aswell as B-sides are all from Hammersmith except for SAnctuary which is LB.

However, it is listed on the Iron Maiden Commentary Bootlegs site (http://www.ironmaidencommentary.com/?url=tour05_powerslave/bootlegs05_powerslave&lang=eng&link=tours) that MURDERS was played also in Long Beach, CA.

That version WAS recorded and was a B-Side on the Running Free (LIVE) 12″single release that was taken from the Live After Death Album. It was also on the 10 Years Iron Maiden CD Single Collection that was released in 1988!

As I mentioned before (see my comment above), I was disapointed reading the reviewer’s comments. After listening it, I’m more and more disapointed. I have plenty of Godfathers releases, but this is most likely the worst. Not even MURDERS would justify such a crap like this. What a shame! To the reviewer: MURDERS IN THE RUE MORGE was also played in one of the Long Beach concerts (Mar 15, 1985), which made became the LIVE AFTER DEATH album. Just too bad it was not chosen to be part of the album.

For me, it’s my first purchase of this source/show so overall I’m very impressed by the sound but I guess for the more seasoned Maiden collector, as per relayer67, it may well be seen as a missed opportunity if it is the mastering that is causing the issues.

I had hoped they would have tracked down the master that was used on “Back in the Village”. Thats a great recording but slightly hissy. Not got my GF copy yet,but still looking forward to it.
Oh, this wasn’t the only time that “Murders” was played on that tour (Yes, even though Bruce says “you are the only audience in the land to get a rendition of that song”) They played it in Ipswich earlier. Basically,they added an extra song at a few shows, which i’m guessing was to try them out before Hammy O. Recordings do exist of those nights ;-)

The CD set arrived on my doormat last week and allthough not up to Godfather’s regular high quality standard when it comes to Maiden stuff it’s a very nice release.

It’s actually the source tape that was used but propably the cassette had tapewear or the tapedeck with which the (new?) transfer to CD was done had some problems.

It’s a nice recording of that tour that needs a little get used to compared to the other Maiden stuff they released but on listening it grows on you as it’s full sounding, nice instrument seperation, clear vocals and hardly any audience noice.

More second opinions on this one, please?

I also had high hopes for this one mostly because of MURDERS IN THE RUE MORGUE, one of my Maiden’s favorite song. Damn it!

Oh well my copy should arrive this week, hopefully not as bad as relayer67 makes it sound.
