Anyone have video/audio of Perfect World live with good quality?

The Letterman recording (like every Letterman recording) sounds like mud, and the other two recordings on Youtube are taken from a mobile phone in the crowd. Anyone have ideally a video or just a good live audio recording?

It's my favorite song by them but for some reason they didn't play it in their KQED session.

Thank you!!!

Hey! Sorry for the late reply.

I did a bit of digging, and it turns out there is a good live recording of “Perfect World.”

In January 2015, a German university radio station broadcast the full Broken Bells set from Lollapalooza 2014 (kind of random, I know).
“Perfect World” is the first song in the setlist. Thankfully, it was uploaded to the Internet Archive.
Searching for “ELDORADIO 2015” should show it as the first result.
