Audio Bootlegs

[overcompressionsucks]

I love audiobootlegs of live concerts, be it soundboard or audience recording. Especially ones done after the mid nineties when the loudness war took off. Why? Cause they let you hear certain songs without compression or other dry production techniques that is the mainstay of music production today.Ex: I listened to a decent quality bootleg of Megadeth peforming live in Argentina 8 days ago. I got to hear "Headcrusher" off of Endgame with a natural performed live production without any sterile Andy Sneap production techniques. Just way more fun to hear it live.
