thir13en: My capture from VHS of the ABC broadcasted tracks, from a short-lived program called "In Concert". I originaly did this about a year ago and seeded it here on the ZOMB, but I couldn't find that cap anywhere, so I did another and probably better one. Ripped through my Sony HDV camera, this one looks better and has seen some video remastering as well as my typical audio touch-ups.

DVD rendered version of the two songs. I edited the video to very nearly be an official widescreen shot, as the top and bottom of the video would be cut-off due to excessive tracking noise anyways. 

The audio transfer was very difficult, and some fixes were made. Each song had a weird blip that had to be corrected, but the fix is seamless. Siva had strange dropouts in the EQ on one channel and the song had to be mastered in three pieces. Bury Me was mastered in two pieces as EQ settings would change drastically during the extended drum break (still noticable, nothing more I could do to it). They also contain the predictable 15.75k tone from video crossover frequencies, but otherwise have nice spectral coverage. They both sound about as good as they'll get. 

Audio on DVD tracks is 16-48 wav files.
