This a good recording that's worth download! The second bootleg that i got at the end 1986
The guy i got it from told me it was Stockholm (86nov14) the day before. But it wasn't! I
have ears you know! The first one being Stockholm 1983. Oh, yes, in them days i didn't get
a hold of lot Maiden bootlegs per year, it's diffrent now;)

Anyway....
When i got this in a trade the guy stated this is one of the "IMM" (Iron Maiden masters)
Well, i have reason to belive he is full of "buffalo-chips" The CDs that i've recived
had a couple of vinyl clicks on it (i've removed those by with a bit of snipp snipp)
and a fade out after Children of the damned and a fade in Stranger in a strange land!
I splice those two together again with fairly good results. First i tried the good 'ol
Crossfade function, but when the songs mixed together it sounded really awful.
It sounded like i've put an MXR Phase 90 on the tracks! And here is a lesson for you boys and
girls! Don't put either de-clicker or de-noise on bootlegs, it can make a splice together a
living hell!!! I didn't help that the tracks where in slightly diffrent speed too (just a
couple of %).
So to solve this i just cut the tracks together without the crossfade. You can hear it if
you have a good ear(s) Nothing that ruin the concert itself, just a minor glitch!
From Stranger in a strange land to the last song i pitched it up a quarter of a step to make
it more sothing to your ears. I've put some EQ and raised the treble and bass 2 or 3 db each, just
to add a little punch to it without ruining anything!
Oh, yes, even though this is a killer bootleg, i sincerly hope that some of you have the original
masters and wouldn't mind seeding those. Vinyl bootlegs are often OK. But the masters are better.
This concert initself is one of my favorites and i hope it will come out!
Happy listening!
