Recording comments
ZappaFripp 'fixed' version of BURP 013.
'The original seed had some problems that could be repaired, so I decided to go ahead. It was clearly a mono recording, but the left channel was muffled and had close to no signal, until "Supper's Ready" when both channels switched: it made for a weird listening experience in headphones. It also ran at a slow speed, with the boys sounding like their older counterparts and the tempos being slugged. I generated a mono channel using only the non-muffled signal and also took some time to smooth some thumps. Some were eliminated altogether, others were impossible to work (a lot remain in "More Fool Me"). I used the "Extra Tracks: live at Rainbow" DVD-A as a reference for speed correction. The speed on this Naples tape was a bit difficult to fix because it was not constant, but I think I've reached a point in which I'm very satisfied with the results. I think it's a quite good sounding audience tape for the era, with a good balance between instruments and clear sound, even though some segments are a bit muffled (tape degradation, I suppose) and the tapers, a man and a woman, chat a bit too much in some sections.'

Recording comments
Confusion around the Italian shows - This show can be recognised by the following words after Watcher - Phil: "Thankyou and good evening Naples" Peter: "Salute Napoli. Ciao. Grazie. Grazie Mille! Io parlo male italiano. Questa parla della dea Britannia..." - Thanks to Casimiro Baldanza

I'm too young to be present at the gig, but, as neapolitan citizen I know the acoustical venue, I can say that it seems happened to the Palasport and not in Teatro Mediterraneo. [Francesco]
