Best quality Soldier Field boot?

PJ-Cubs · August 2013

Can anyone point me towards the best quality boot from 1995 Soldier Field show?

I am have been listening to this show a lot lately but the copy I have is bad. Where should I go to get a better version? Gremmie's basement? Pearljambootlegs.org? Another site?

I am hoping someone can point me to a great sounding copy instead having to download from a few different sites and picking the best one.

I downloaded mine from pearljambootlegs.org and the quality is pretty good. I'd suggest going there.

This is what I have. Sounds great, other than Jack Irons loudly banging away on every song

I think the pearljambootlegs.org version is missing some tracks (Forever in Blue Jeans wasn't listed)

Forever In Blue Jeans is from the Wisconsin show. When the boots came out, they used it as filler along with some other songs to fill up the 3rd disc. It was not played at Soldier Field. 7/11/95 will live as one of the best boots and PJ shows ever!! So raw, so full of energy! Gonna listen to it right now since I'm up and can't sleep LOL...

I never knew that. I guess I have never looked at the real setlist, just thought my boot had the correct songs on it.

The Soldier Field show is amazing. Almost 20 years later, I am still mad that I could not get tickets for it.

I've got the boot that looks like the who album cover. Awesome quality.

This is indeed the best source.

Does it have the really bad sound reflection? The copy I have you can hear sound bouncing off the stadium, Ed's voice sounds like he'a talking through a stadium PA.

I agree about this being the best source as well. I have not listened to it in a while but I'm the type of collector that really only collects 1 source from each show... If there are multiple sources I tend to just keep whichever one I feel sounds best.... I kept this source in my collection.

I have also been looking for a better quality Soldier Field bootleg, thank you very much Demetrios for your efforts to upload this copy of the show (in flac !). This is the best copy that I've heard. I was looking for a quality close to the Atlanta '94 bootleg - I've got it now thanks to you. Have a nice week.

Thanks. Can't wait to listen. This show was actually my first ever PJ bootleg. Bought it for $40 at a flea-market in like '97.

I know I should know this already, but is this ^^^ the same source for the Soldier Field Vinyl?

The Monkey Wrench Mono FM + CS > D7 > 3 CD-R .. is not the same source as the vinyl.

With all due respect...surely you jest. Yes a Jack fan here so turn the drums up!

Jack played a fantastic set at Soldier Field and if I recall correctly, the next day or so he came out with the beat that was the catalyst for In My Tree. That's a tidy couple of days' work in anyone's book.

I agree with you on the jack irons. People can like his style or sound if they want, and he probably played on myfavorite pj album of all time, but the dude is by far the least impressive drummer they have had, technically speaking. Could not play fast, could not play "out of" his groove, fills not that good, etc etc

Anyway back to the OP, I don't know what links people posted, but I have a copy of the Red Robin 3 Cd print of this show, believe it was a radio station that printed them up or something, taken from the soundboard of the pirate radio broadcast down by the band? it has the live at Leeds style cover. Wish there was more bass in the mix, but overall a pretty quality sounding show compared to audience recordings etc of the time. Has the sum effect bonus tracks which are far inferior sound quality.

Best quality Soldier Field boot?
