Tori Amos 

RATING SYSTEM For Audio Boots:
Everything is on a 1 to 10 system (10 being studio or radio broadcast quality and 1 being  utter crap!!), A rating of 5 is average quality. I also use a + and - (minus) to give a better idea of the rating. I have broken down the different components of the boots into sections:

Audience: How loud or quiet they are, and if they show up on the boot (ie the taper singing along or talking etc).
Volume: Do you need to turn up the volume on your stereo to hear everything clearly, does it sound as if you are in the room with Tori or just listening through a door.
Vocals:Are her vocals clearly heard or do you have to know the words to follow along.
Bass Heavy: How bass heavy the boot is, if the instruments drown out everything and sound distorted through your speakers,  or if they are mold together and sound good.
NOTE:the 1992 shows dont really have much Bass, not until 94 tour when she plays God does bass really show up, and then in 98+ Bass is a factor to look at.
Overall: A rating on a show overall performance, set list, stories, emotional etc.

VIDEO'S
A+ studio/pro-shot/Excellent quality.
A Near perfect/low generation.
B Very good/decent generation/worthy
C mainly for collectors/ ok quality.
D ONLY for the die hard collectors otherwise dont bother
F Hahaha wouldnt even waste your time bothering.

*PLEASE NOTE: When looking at my ratings on video boots the letter grade is given according to overall quality of video (which is camera work--do you have good consistant shots of the lead singer?, is it shaky?, does it have good close ups? etc). Then i also give a generation note, and the lower the generation the better picture/sound quality the video is going to have (example: a 1st gen copy is going to be better than a 6th gen copy as far as picture/sound goes.) Any questions just ask me. Thanks.
