Various Sources 9.0 - I give this a high rating for many reasons, as it can be easily assumed that the sound quality will vary being a compilation. The producers were smart to put it together this way, I found it to play much like a legitimate record company release. The worst of the recordings is in itself not even that bad, in the context you are hearing it in, it takes on new significance. I myself did not realize how few times some of these songs were played live, so having a collection like this makes sense. I enjoyed it immensely. So will you.

Even if you're a collector of every individual show this is still a keeper to have, one reason being the unreleased track on disc 5, "Nowhere Else To Turn", sure it's a Ray Wilson-led Genesis track, but one of the very few unreleased studio tracks by Genesis to have leaked to the collector's.

Audience 8.6 - This is an untouched, raw transfer straight from the reels, and as such it will sound like it could be MUCH better sonically with some professional sound re-mastering. Many people will no doubt want to hear it as it was recorded, and it is good, it’s really pretty good, but what I would prefer is a sonic facelift because I think this one really deserves it. It’s still a great show.

Pro FM Broadcast 9.2 - Both sets are great, both in performance and sound quality.  Really great musicianship! I also found myself really enjoying the songs, since I was only very familiar with their evergreen hit “Green Grass and High Tides”.  I saw these guys in 1980 and they were great but I was so young I just can’t remember the songs.

Soundboard 9.3 - Three discs containing three shows performed during a stretch of the ’74 tour when Bill Bruford was brought in to complete the tour dates scheduled. All three are soundboard, great clarity and dynamics, a real sonic treat and of course Bruford brings a wide array of chops and panache to add to an already talented ensemble.

Audience 9.1 - Both shows are excellent, Zappa seemed to be in a very good mood, even extending the first night’s show length to accommodate late arrivals. Very cool. I think these are some of the best of the US leg of the ’88 tour. Frank Zappa Bushnell Memorial Hall Hartford, CT. February 16, 1988 Disc 1 1. The Black Page 2. Band Intro 3. Frank Speaks Out 4.

Audience 7.8 - Recorded on what sounds like a realistic cassette deck, it’s limited in dynamic range and clarity. It is not, however, a pile of muck and murk, you can hear pretty much every instrument, and guitar cuts through during solos but rhythm-wise it’s behind the sound a bit. Vocals are clear, I get drums pretty well, so it’s not a waste of time and it’s a great tour with 25 or 6 to 4 being their latest blockbuster smash hit.  I would get this if you appreciated the band during their initial rise to stardom, as the joy in their playing does come through on this tape. CHICAGO The Forum, Los Angeles, CA - April 24, 1971 Disc 1: 1. -Listen 2. -Lowdown 3. -Beginnings 4. -Jam - In the Country 5. -Loneliness Is Just A Word 6. -South California Purples 7. -Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is 8. -Ballet For A Girl In Buchanon Disc 2: 1. -Introduction 2. -Fancy Colours 3. -It Better End Soon 4. -Mother 5. -Where Do We Go From Here 6. -Elegy 7. -A Song For Richard And His Friends 8. -25 or 6 to 4 Terry Kath - guitar, vocals Peter Cetera - bass, vocals Robert Lamm - keyboards, vocals Lee Loughnane - trumpet James Pankow - trombone Walter Parazaider - woodwinds Danny Seraphine - drums

Audience 8.7 - Electric and palpable, from the band on down to the audience members, a solid gig and a pretty enjoyable recording with a terrific bass response especially. In the pantheon of Yes shows, I’d have to rate this performance as transcendent, and a great reminder of what Patrick Moraz contributed in his brief tenure.

Audience 8.4 - A lo-fi but pretty decent and clear recording. I would not expect there to be many high-end live tapes floating around due to the fact that most people probably did not know who this guy was.  Collectors will appreciate having this, a very uncommon thing and worthy of investigation.
