Title: Privateering is slowed down
Post by: holaknopfler on July 02, 2013, 11:40:11 PM: I was just listening to the recording from Geneve 2011, and I noticed that Privateering is slowed down if you compare it to the 2013 version. I must say I like the 2011 version better :) Anybody noticed that too?

Maybe having a less powerful set makes the less brilliant tunes shine a little more.

Yes I find myself surprinsingly liking average songs like CBC or IUTC... when at a show (not that much when listening to a recording).
