The job that Tim Turan did on the SS box is fantastic.
I think that Vic Anesini did the mastering on the original COB box (the long box) and that sounds way better to my ears than the loud/harsh later reissue.

Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.
