Notes: 
Here is my recording (ripped via EAC from my original mastered CDR's).The Brook was packed with a friendly, responsive crowd. The sound on the night was pretty good overall and is represented well on this recording.
The 2 nice & long sets had been revamped to include several songs from their new album "Heart Full Of Sky", as well as a couple for Christmas. 

For those interested - basic details of the mastering applied to my original JB3 recording during production of the original CDR's (using Wavelab5) are as follows:
A: EQ / Multiband Compression / Limiting (-0.2dB max) 
B: WAVs edited to fit on to 2xCDRs (with overlap) plus fade in/out
C: track split

A note for any finicky audiophiles out there: 
Mastering has been done to polish the raw master recording with the aim of enhancing the listening experience. If you prefer virgin recordings, unspoiled by any such amateur 'dabbling' then do not join in on this one. Be warned now ... I don't want any whinging! ;-) 

But for the rest of you Dimers I recommend that you GO FOR THIS ONE ... you won't be disappointed! 
I score the sound quality as 9 out of 10 ( = A ); 
but hey! ... don't flame me if you don't agree ... & at least keep it friendly ;-) 

If you have any comments, whether positive, negative or otherwise, I would love to read them ... don't be a lurker!
