• SDBRD  9.1 - Classic stuff, a great band at a great time, having a great time! The crowd is amped, the guitars are pumping, the bass and drums are thumping…aw yeah!  
  • Formed in 1969, legendary heavy Southern psyche rock group Josefus took Texas by storm, recording a monumental LP (Dead Man) and touring throughout Texas in 1969 (opening act for Grand Funk on most of the Texas dates). Somehow, through all the craziness, they have kept it together (original singer and guitarist) all these years and continue to record and play live. This CD showcases an exceptional live performance on one side (this was originally done on vinyl which is now out of print) and a rare 1978 studio session on the other side (was lost for over 35 years!). A killer disc!
  • Audience  7.5 - Serviceable tape that at times shows its age with some telltale squeaking at the beginning. Gives you a pretty good representation of the show without offending , but the mix has vocals kind of low, and overall is a touch on the dark side but Duane’s playing is the focus, where it is front and center in the mix.  
  • Soundboard  9.3 - Pro radio broadcast.  
  • Audience  7.0 - Somewhat distorted due to proximity to the stage and volume. The tape is clearly overloaded and struggling here. Now the good news – this is a Duane Allman showcase, and he is clear on this tape! It’s a keeper, but not winning any prizes.  
  • Audience  7.4 - Pretty average recording, a touch distorted, but Duane comes through it all which is what you want.  
  • Soundboard  9.3 - Crisp, wonderful recording and mix.  
  • Soundboard  8.4 - Some distortion due to tape saturation.  
  • Audience  9.0- The band taped these rehearsals which consist of writing, ideas, smoking lots of dope, jamming, and smoking more dope.  
  • Pro Made non factory pressed compact discs housed in 2 pocket gate fold jacket with full laser printed graphics front, back, inside, discs, and spine.
  • CD 1 - Soundboard  9.2 CD 2 - Audience  8.9  
  • Pro Studio  9.7 - A real treat, "From The Inside" has atmosphere and is great in pretty much every aspect. Hard to not fall in love with this one.

  • Soundboard  9.0 - A mix that captures the band firing on all cylinders, certainly you have to say that Alice Cooper had total command of performance throughout his career and if you worried that his drinking might affect him onstage, well listen to these early shows. I hear no signs of inebriation. In fact this is extremely tight and strong performance wise.

  • Soundboard  8.9 - It’s a very clean, good board but it features a heavy reverb sound, but it’s probably natural reverb. Still an interesting kind of atmospheric recording.  
  • Audience  8.3 - A great effort by the taper to capture and preserve a rock concert in his hometown with what sounds like pretty good gear. The levels are a touch low, but the fact that everything is pretty clear and there’s no distortion at all, well I tip my hat to this guy! A good one.  
  • Soundboard  8.8 - Good to hear this material live, the band was so good in 1971, this board tape reveals that.

  • Soundboard  9.2 - Very direct and forceful sounding, but a touch harsh I would say. Still I am being picky, it’s a damn good one!

  • Pro  9.0 - This recording is great for the time period but it seems that it has been remastered to remove what was probably a great deal of hiss. There’s some left here, but I gotta say this is still one hell of a nice recording.  
  • Audience  9.1 - Excellent and great, electric atmosphere. Yup, a certain keeper!

  • Audience  7.3 - A rip-roaring, over the top onslaught of greasy rock and roll captured painfully close to the PA. Sounds like this may be lifted from vinyl, and there’s tape noise artifacts present. But, all that taken into account, this is still a very good time and not painful on the ears despite the volume (I think someone attempted to remaster this but it can use one more time).  
  • Soundboard  8.7 - It’s fine just sounds a little dated to me, all the instruments are present which is cool since a lot of times Glenn’s guitar is mixed low or struggles to be heard.  
  • Soundboard  9.7 - Sparkling, immaculate, totally pro mix and sound.  
  • Pro Radio Broadcast  9.2 - Sounds very much like a product of its time, and, it is rather good and Aldo shreds convincingly.  
  • Audience  8.4 - Very rare show, perhaps slightly on the thin side but screaming guitar and vocals stand out. A must have for any Aldo Nova fan!  
  • Studio Quality  9.5 - Demo Sessions from "No Parole From Alcatrazz ".  
  • Audience  8.0 - Crisp and loud mids/highs with a little lacking in bottom but very enjoyable nonetheless. The band sometimes sounds a little unsure, but the energy is great.  
  • Audience  9.7 - Superb in every detail.  
  • Audience  8.3 - Nothing overtly wrong here, but it is a tad on the hot side with a very tiny amount of break up in the highs where it is maybe pushing so hard, this could be tape limitation. It’s a good recording nonetheless.  
  • CD 1 - Audience  9.6 CD 2 - Audience  8.8 CD 3 - Audience  8.9 Hot crisp and sweet recording.
