Audience 8.2 and 8.4 - Both recordings, while limited in their own respective ways, are both MUST HAVES for the early Motley Crue collectors because they are pretty listenable, with the nod going to the later show even though it is narrower in its bandwidth (it is, however, much clearer). The ‘81 show is a little cluttered in the center, but has broader range and sounds “hot” so to speak.

Audience 7.3 - Kick drum and vocals sound great though. -
A rare find, a good sounding 70's Motorhead live! I'd grab this one quick as I have very few of them and already they are out of print. Import from UK, SEALED. -

CD 1 - Reading 1979 – Audience 5.7 - Loud and thundering but lead guitar is heard through the din, and you can kind of hear Lemmy singing, and there’s some drum like noises too. CD 2 Paris 1980 – Aud 6.9 - You can hear the music on this show. There are practically no decent recordings of the early Motorhead, but this one, even though it is bad, is one of the better ones because you can hear the songs, and it is not distorted. The guitar is really pretty clear – and so is Lemmy thank goodness. Oh, they kick ass on this show - Really. -

Audience 8.2 - Not great in the instrument separation dept. but sonically it is very good and clear with no distortion. A “real” sounding large hall vibe is present. Kind of like being there I would say. -
Audience 7.6 - Suffers from some kind of annoying mid frequency squelch. But, it’s actually a very good recording, just marred by some kind of technicality. -
Sale!
Audience 8.8 - A surprising tape! Never knew of this one, it’s quite good and clear! -
Audience 8.9 - This is a most excellent effort to capture what had to be an insanely loud concert on non-professional equipment. A massive sound is on display and you can get a much better sense of what the keyboard player Steve Knight brought to the table. All praise to the taper!

Soundboard 9.6 - Mixed for a possible live album, these recordings really sparkle and show off the unbridled power of this band on stage. I have to consider this stuff to be essential for ANY collection, not just Mountain/Leslie West fans. Mountain - Live At The Fillmore East Recorded on December 30 & 31, 1970 & January 1, 1971 CD1: 1.

Audience 8.4 - A little lo-fi here but guitar is up front followed by drums which you can hear well. Some tape hiss present, bass is in a good place not too boomy and complements the guitar sound well. Leslie is playing more fluid here, probably because RCMH is known for good acoustics so he must have had good feedback. Crowd is on his side, he owned New York without a doubt. I feel like this recording would benefit greatly from a good re-mastering, hiss reduction, etc. because it has a decent enough sonic foundation.
