this concert is mixed 100 times better than Pompei 2016 by gilmour, which is almost unlistenable
The Nick Mason album is really brilliant recorded and mixed. And that is not wat i can say from the new Us & Them live-album of Roger Waters. It sound like a studio album where they mixed in some applause. It really doesn't has any live-vibe at all. I was at the Ziggodome shows were they recorded it at they the band sound really great and i don't hear it back in the official recording. It really doesn't "breathe". And i also don't understand why they cut out "Smell the Roses" from the main set and add it as "bonus" only on the dvd. Same with the complete encore which is left out on the album and dvd. Only "Comfortably Numb" is a bonus on the dvd. And they add of 2 songs as a kind of reprise in the end which they actually hasn't played as reprise.
This has in my opinion nothing to do with a good representaion of the Us & Them tour. I bought the album and dvd because I was at these shows but I prefer the bootlegs of the shows.
The best Waters live album is still In The Flesh? I wish that that was also the standard of quality for the Us & Them release but unfortanely it is not. Even some bootlegs of this tour sound way better
