Yep, I still have the file, very shit bitrate, 192 I think

The sound on a Youtube video depends on the bitrate of the audio. It has nothing to do with the production of the album. A Youtube video doesn't change how the production actually sounds.

While that’s true to a point, low bit rate recordings sound absolute shit and a bit “tinny” for lack of a better word, and that’s what I hear here.
Travis The Dragon
AFTERGLOW!!!
Yes, exactly. Take out that shit tinny sound and you still have the overall way the production sounds.

Absolutely. If there was any depth and attack to the drums like in concert, it would be less defined and possibly distorted in the compressed lossy audio. But it is just not there.
There may be grit on the guitar sound that got fucked over by YT's compression. We'll see.

When I copy the video URL and paste it, it says it's unavailable, but it has over 28,000 views and makes it look like it's on Maiden's official youtube, but when I go to their youtube, it doesn't even show up at all. Is this video out there or isn't it?

I just put "aces high Mexico 2019" in YT search, the link is there and the video is there.
But, I'm a subscriber to the channel.

I'm subscribe as well and no luck here with searching for that on YT. Maybe because it's so new it takes a while for it to get to everyone?

It's not so much shit as it is lazy. BoS: LC had the same problem...they just used some tour artwork and slapped it on the cover. This one they just changed the outfit on the Trooper Eddie they've been using in most of the recent LotB posts and a little extra.

Well, I had to find a site that let's you download YT videos so I finally got a listen. That's definitely one of Bruce's better vocal performances of that song from the LOTB tour so no complaints there.

Yea, I think he sound fucking phenomenal. His highs are super clean and crisp and not nearly as “warbly” as on the BOS tour.

I think there were nights were he did because of illness, but here he sounds really good. Easily as good as Flight 666. He does sound a touch winded. That said, it’s still quite a bit better than Live After Death.

I think it was one of his better performances in 2019. I still think he was a lot better in 2018 overall, but maybe that's because the videos aren't professional recordings and you can't hear him being out of breath or something like that on those videos. It's a good performance, but I do think 2018 ones were better.

Don't really care if we had all but one song on previous live albums. I will consider this a nice souvenir from one of my fav Maiden tours ever.

Hmmmm I definitely
Hmmmm definitely need to hear this version again 'cause I really don't really like what I hear. On the other hand you're definitely right about him sounding better than the version of Aces High in th Live After Death video

Like I said above, there was another version on youtube of the same track a few months ago, that sounded way better. I recorded the stream at the time so I've been able to listen to them side by side and trust me that sample that's on there now is shit.

There are some strained parts but overall fantastic performance of Bruce.
