It's already out. It's an updated expanded edition of "Official Bootleg Live In Denmark".

Like many similar releases in the loudness wars of 2013, the restoration is a huge improvement over the original; but it's loud & painfully bright in the upper mids from Brickwall Compression. I'm sure most Icer's already know this, but few things musical piss me off more.

I've so far only done a comparison on my computer systems (both of them), I don't know how it compares on my main system. I'm afraid it might be more irritating, though.

On the other hand for those who don't mind compressed mastering, it would be a huge improvement; the original was just above bootleg quality. The 3 bonus tracks are also useful (though I have so much DP I may already have them elsewhere & not know it!)

BTW, musically this kicks ass; especially the Copenhagen version of Space Truckin'. I would guess the sound of the original was so bad I didn't pay much attention to it. Really a shame this edition is brickwalled or I would be raving about it.

I'm happy with mine. Played it last week and enjoyed the heck out of it.
