Heyhey,

thanks for this stunning concert. But as "StraussMix" already mentioned, this recording runs way too slow. Don't know, what he meant by "1.8 semitone" - I just compared the BPM of Don't Go with this YT upload of the same concert:

Unfortunately I do know only few songs of Yaz really good, to have proper feeling for the speed ;))
But ok, I went for "Don't Go" at least for a comparision:
"Don't Go" from the YT concert runs with approx. 119,8bpm, whilst the file of the download here, runs with only 112,2 (!) bpm. I want to equal the speed to the same level, like the YT, I would have to speed it up about 6,77%... I tried it with "goldwave". It somehow works... But I made the following experience: I have a feeling, that Alison M. voice, while she's announcing the next songs, some sounds too fast and a little pitched up now... But only while she's speaking. When the song runs, it seem appears a tiny little bit too slow for my ears, haha... Really a strange thing. Unfortunately I'm lacking a proper "baseline" in form of other Yaz/concert-recordings, to do proper adjustments... And as I said. I am not a bit Yazoo fan, though I have both albums and one or two 12"s from them in my collection. (but only rarely listen to 'em)

Any ideas, suggestions? :)
