Sound quality: 2
Source: Radio broadcast -> 2. gen analogue tape -> cdr
Complete: No
X-ref: A better version on md is said to exist, but I've never heard or seen it.

Comments: This one is not a must have, despite being a radio broadcast... Maybe it was an amateur station? Although this tape is at least 2. generation , the loss in quality between tape generations can't fully explain the bad sound.

The show started with The 3rd, Superstooge, The Witch, Go To California and All Is Loneliness, but these songs were probably not aired.

Ricky says: Today I've listened to the Brescia 2000 recording! Hey, it's a radio broadcast! The "owner" of the festival was the italian radio "radio onda d'urto" and the speaker at the beginning says something like: "If you're around come here that the concert is going on"... And before the encore: "We have found the way to broadcast the concert also if not from the beginning..."

I think that only in Italy it's possible to broadcast a concert in C/C+ sound!!

Alex says: According to rumors there was a snippet of a Grateful Dead song called "The Eleven" performed in Black To Comm. unfortunately this is not "the eleven". it is a lenghty "lovelight" improvisation started by bent. it features some made-up lyrics but bent always returns to the 'lovelight' theme.

Highlights: None.
