Chicago 1995 - The Classic Soldiers Field Broadcast - Does anyone own it?
I've slowly been acquiring silver pressed copies of some of the classic shows from the 90s (yah I have digital copies but I want to get hard copies too). I saw this on Amazon UK:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Chicago-1995-Classic-Soldiers-Broadcast/dp/B014KPE7KE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1446147268&sr=8-1&keywords=pearl+jam+soldier+field
Even though is probably quasi-illlegal (illegal to make and release here, but not so illegal over there) I was wonder if they were silver pressed (as I've seen some companies getting lazy and using well disguised cd-r's) and the sound was comparable to the other boots out there. Doesn't look too bad for 9.99 pounds.

If I had to guess its the same source that's out there and "repackaged" to make money.
1.) Source: Boot CD-"Live at Soldier Field": MWFM (Red Robin)
+ "Animal" from MWFM > Q101 promo CD + Coresounds > Sony TCD-D7
2.) 2 Sources Mix: Monkey Wrench Mono FM + CS > D7 > 3 CD-R
3.) Core Sound Binaurals > Sony TCD-D7 > DAT-M > DAT1 48khz Transfer: Tascam DA-20 > Monster coax > DiO 2496 > Soundforge 6.0 (resample to 44.1) > CDWave > FLAC

There's this promo CD that keeps popping up every few weeks on eBay.
Then there's this a Parrot & Robin version ..
.. There's Parrot one for $60 bucks over at http://www.amazon.com/Pearl-Jam-Live-Soldier-Field/dp/B009PFS062 .
..
Then there's this one.
Which at one time I didn't buy cause of funds. It was either this or the Road Rage bootleg. I went with the Road Rage bootleg. Went back to Taz Records the week after, set was gone. D'oh!!!

If you want the best audio experience from this show, download that sweet soundboard / audience mix.
It sounds good, (a little 'swishy' though, at times) probably the same as the bootlegs out there, but it is claimed to be the direct broadcast from the SBD - there is commentary at the very beginning and during the encores.
I think the discs are silver pressed with a number on the back of each and are both picture discs featuring the photo from the CD inlay card.

Notice the incorrect date on the back. Listed as November 7th 1995 instead of July 11th 1995.
On a side note, I notice now that this is the whole show with all the songs and 157 min total running time (I checked the time of every song listed and the total time results in 153 min 44 sec though).. When I first saw it on Ebay I thought it was incomplete, since it was only 2cd set..
If I'm not wrong, this is actually the first time ever this concert appears in its entirety in a silver pressed (even if it's a bootleg) cd set.. Right? Plus, what source do you think it's been used here? It says "From An FM Radio Broadcast" but that isn't too much info.. they could as well have used the new mix BLG did about a couple years ago, for what we know (and maybe trimmed it a little to fit it in two cd without overburning? I don't know, never burned this show on cd even if I listened to it dozen of times).
