The concert was recorded two ways: 1) through the small Fender PA system that served as the sound system. David's guitar was plugged in separately to the PA, and so sounds really clear. The Fender mic, however, doesn't do justice to the emotional power in his voice, although it is perfectly clear. 2) through a Sony ECM-55 lavalier mic attached to the mic stand. This version doesn't pick up the guitar quite as well, but there seems to be more emotional depth in David's voice.
Take your pick, or take both. We may post a stereo-ized version combining both versions...
