A quick listen to Mother indicates Waters's vocals are distorted pretty badly, but beggars can't be choosers...

I'll put up direct download links for FLAC and mp3 soon.

Thanks! I was considering converting some of the better sounding videos on YouTube to FLAC or WAV audio to make my own recording of this once in a lifetime event. Glad you found this recording, so I won't have to. I'll download and check it out later.

Thanks again John!

Thanks for this! Will download when I get home later.

John, I can't seem to get the FLAC version to work (the page won't load for me). At first, I thought it was just being blocked at my work, but now that I'm home, I still can't get it to load for me. (The MP3 did work - just finished downloading it but haven't listened to it yet.) I really prefer FLAC though, if you could look into it...when you get a chance.
Thanks again!

I appreciate the taper's efforts, but Waters's vocals are pretty badly distorted.  I ripped audio from YouTube videos of each song Waters did w/MMJ et al.  The result is downloadable below...

John, I'm having trouble getting these songs to play. I've downloaded the zip file and did the copy and paste thing to a folder in my music files, but they are causing some music playing programs to have an error and won't play on any others. Are you able to download and play them? Maybe you could check it out, when you get a chance. Thanks for all your efforts!

I used some online YouTube converter, KeepVid.com, and the audio files come up as mp4.  I can play it with my VLC media player.  I'll see if I can convert to mp3...

[johnnYYac]

I replaced the m4a files with mp3:  http://www.mediafire.com/download/72hoelb0g684a9r/Roger_Waters_%26_My_Morning_Jacket_%40_Newport_Folk_Festival_2015.zip
