'VENETIANIGHT' - 15th July 1989 - Venice, Italy


Sound Quality: B-
Performance: B
Overall: 2

Suffers from an almost non-existant 'Shine On You Crazy Diamond' due to a ten minute cut and also the end of 'Sorrow', chopping off the really bassy refrain at the end, not to mention at ugly transition to the next track like 12 seconds early.

The performance was pretty samey, I would recommend 'Delicate Sound Of Thunder' over this any day of the week. There were a couple of highlights - 'Money' had some nice improvisation on it although not that much and 'Comfortably Numb' was pretty good but there is a part where there is some fast drumming which I didn't care for.

Leave this one alone, there is a DVD of this show which I have to watch, but this can be safely left on the shelf.
