The sound quality is good to very good. Clarity is given but crispness could be better. The instruments come through clearly and sound voluminous but the overall sound is slightly muddy. "Out Of Control" fades in during the opening notes due to an edit. Disc 2 contains a soundcheck from the War tour and some soundboard recorded tracks most likely from the October tour. I could not find out from where and when these songs were recorded.
