JPJ & Ben Harper with Govt Mule - WTLB (Plus a YouTube Tip)



Fairly sure this clip hasn't been posted yet.

It was captured from the rear-side stage, unfortunately.  I think Matt
Abts sounds pretty damn good on the drums.
I know there's another clip from the same vantage point of The Ocean available.

Also wanted to pass along a YouTube tip that at least some people may
not be aware of... if you have a fast connection, just attach the
suffix of "&fmt=18" to any YT url.  If the clip is available in higher
quality, you'll be able to take advantage of that.  The difference in
audio quality was especially noticeable in a lot of the videos I
watched yesterday while experimenting.

There's an explanation here:

In other words, the address of the normal clip was
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHx_bu0J33w
but I added &fmt=18

Here's another even more noticeable example of Jimmy Page playing with
The Black Crowes at the Greek in LA in October 1999 - the sublime Ten
Years Gone, from the 3rd Eye video:
