Soundboard 9.1 - A smooth sound here, nothing is going to jar you out of your headphones but that is what works well with this music. Very pleasant!

Soundboard 9.6 - Pretty much the crème de la crème for collectors of this great band. Fame is just now latching on to them, as they get ever larger gigs and more exposure. Wait until Money For Nothing and then it really takes off! I guess these are the days before the glory although I would say they are hitting their stride. Dire Straits Studio-L.

Pro Studio 9.5 - This collection would be for the person who does not wish to sift through exhaustive comps of early B-sides and studio sessions. Rather, it showcases a cross section of his early sessions designed to reveal only the highlights. It’s certainly easier to tackle especially if you plan on bringing the disc for a road trip.

Jimi Hendrix - Black Gold ... Volume 1 Pro Studio 9.7 - Expertly compiled and many would say that this represents one of the top tier collections of studio work compilations out there. In its own right, you could say the “Black Gold” series is definitive or at least was held in that esteem for many years by collectors.

Soundboard 8.9 - Great performance here, one of the best I have heard quite frankly. Having just ditched the classic line up, you would think a downturn in performance caliber would occur but I do not get that here at all.

Soundboard 8.8 - A little tiny bit of muddiness in the middle frequencies as drums fight for bandwidth with the vocals and guitars, a real battle for supremacy…but man, the guitar jams these guys get into wow!
