The first bootleg i heard was from Zoo tv, and i expected a AB-ish voice, but was very suprised to hear how low he was singing then. Also, there's a "touch" in his voice and it's a bit raspy you know? Also he sings differently - more flowingly, less straining.
Especially when i heard the JT/LT shows and compared them. More clear voice, notable more power. (especially obvious when he sings the 80's songs on Zoo tv)
So ... do you think that was due to him straining his voice on the albums and tours (UF, JT, R&H) or was it due drinking/smoking he took up in the 90's or did he see some voice doctor/specialist and they instructed him to change his singing style?
