1996 No Code Tour

edited August 2007 in Given To Fly (live)
I apologize as I'm sure this has been asked six thousand times before, but I'm looking to beef up my collection of No Code tour bootlegs, and I'm finding that most of the recordings from the tour sound like total crap. I have Barcelona, which sounds wonderful, and one of the warm-up shows from Seattle, which sounds decent, but of the others I've downloaded - Rome, Istanbul, several others - the sound is pretty bad.

Curiously, could someone name a few of the better recordings from this tour? Anyone who wanted to throw up a link would be much appreciated, but I think I can find most of the links on Pearl Jam Evolution. Just some good old fashioned name-dropping would be swell. Thanks in advance.

    I agree, Milan is a great bootleg. The clapping along to Long Road sounds beautiful!

    Berlin is the soundboard bootleg, but Hamburg is the better show and good quality.

    The two Bridge School Benefit shows from that year are worth having too, even if it's just for the beautiful alternate Corduroy.

    Berlin and Hartford are where you should start.

    I'm not sure what 'most' of the recordings you have. I have all 32 shows, and the ONLY 2 that sound shitty are Istanbul, and Budapest. Rome is ok. The rest are good to excellent. Look in the download/share thread at the last few pages, and you'll see rsusano has posted links to quite a few shows.

    If you need any others, let me know.

    I'm pretty sure the Toronto gig is a soundboard...if it isn't, the sound is definitely A+

    Showbox!! Ed in a fucked up mood ;)
    Beavis : Is this Pearl Jam?
    Butt-head: This guy makes faces like Eddie Vedder.
    Beavis: No, Eddie Vedder makes faces like this guy.
    Butt-head: I heard these guys, like, came first and Pearl Jam ripped them off.
    Beavis: No, Pearl Jam came first.
    Butt-head: Well, they both suck.

    The problem is a lot of you will listen to these in mp3, where a show that sounds Good/OK in FLAC, will become OK/Poor.

    true, but what I meant was that the crowd recorded audios are not great
    lots of people talking etc......

    if someone has a really good recording Id love to hear and have it...

    Listening to an mp3 is not going to provide an inaccurate perception of how good the master tape is. You might be able to hear that lossy hiss, but if something was recorded well, it will shine across various formats.

    Listening to the Berlin soundboard now; it's good, but Ed's vocals are a little low. On the whole, I think the 1996 tour was one of their weaker go-rounds. Barcelona still sounds best to my ears.
