• Audience 8.4 - This is a recording that is hard to figure out because on the one hand it could also be taped in a television studio which is my hunch. The tapers and those around them can be heard between songs but settle down once the music starts, it kind of adds a lot to the atmosphere. That being said, this is still pretty good, and what a gig, really, I mean amazing!
  • Pro Studio 9.7 and SDBRD 9.4 - Only the cleanest and best source material is used in this set. I would recommend this as a good starting point for a 70’s era Jeff Beck collector.
  • Radio Broadcast 9.7 - Great job on the recording by the station.
  • Audience 8.4 - Tapers sitting kind of close it seems, and the recorder admirably managed to prevent too much over-saturation although there is a touch of it and the instrumentation gets cluttered up in the middle a bit at full volume. Overall this is simply a wonderful document of a band that seems to be very comfortable with the material (obviously) and firing on all cylinders.
  • SDBRD 8.8 - A solid one, albeit there’s some tape hiss present, and vocals are a little muddied in the mix but it’s still a really good and anyone can appreciate.
  • Audience 9.0 - This rating is representing a lot more than strictly audio fidelity, because truth be told it’s more of an 8.7 for sound, but the show, and the crowd, and the atmosphere…simply incredible! It’s also important to note that this show is the last live recording of Bon Scott.
  • Audience 7.8 - A recording that slowly gets a little better after the first song or two but I have to tell you – for historical purposes this recording is the first time Brian Johnson appears on tape with the band (live, not studio). I think he does a fine job filling the spot too, but that’s up to every fan to decide.
  • Audience 9.0 - The recording levels are a bit low, but there’s plenty enough headroom in the recording to allow max volume and it sounds killer.
  • Audience 8.9 - Most of the recent tour recordings are excellent and all offer something different for the ears in terms of atmosphere, intensity, and clarity. This one I find has less of an emphasis on separation of instruments and more on depth of bass and overall sound. The guitar comes right at you, and the bass is nicely anchoring the bottom, drums are not as clear but still nicely placed. So, overall I like what this recording delivers.
  • Audience 8.9 - You can turn the volume way up and it gets better and better because the wise taper knew what he was doing.  The show is incomplete though but you won’t find me complaining. Thankful for what I have, and you will be too!
  • Audience 8.6 - A serviceable recording, it stays sort of in the midrange spectrum but is pretty powerful anyway. I suspect this may be audio that was taken from a video source, but to my ears it sounds better than a typical home video camera audio capture.
  • Pro Studio 9.5 - A brilliant sonic overhaul done for these historic tracks. For years circulated widely but now restored and remastered to proper speed .... collectors will be happy to have this set.
  • Soundboard 9.6 - This rating reflects what I feel about this recording in the way that the guitar and bass come across in the mix. So, what you get is a well rounded, brassy bass sound that is articulate and not lost in the low end wastelands or overshadowed by Pete. It sounds like two guitar players playing in perfect harmony, and a lot of Who recordings you do not get that effect so much as just a wall of power and volume. This one is just so good in that sense and deserves a special acknowledgement.
  • Silver Pressed and almost brand new only that it is not sealed anymore. Opening up for Stryper on several occasions, this is the same band that brought us "Orphan Found" and "Spooning Out The Sea".
  • CRAIG CHAQUICO - Autographed - Once in a Blue Universe 1997  (Higher Octave Music)    
  • Debut LP from 1992 ~ Very Rare and sought after by many collectors. Another tight band pushed out by grunge. This band is Rock at its best. Once you hear this, you will not be disappointed. They should have received major recognition for their talent, but was seldom heard.
