• Audience 8.9 - When this recording first starts you get a little worried that it is going to be crap, but when the band begins to play, the sound gets surprisingly good, so much so that it totally sucks you into the moment and you lose yourself in the band. Fantastic!
  • Audience 7.4 - Sounds pretty low generation, but it’s typical of the era being kind of AM radio sounding but on the positive side, the instruments are good and clear if maybe the guitar is a bit in the back.
  • Audience 9.4 - An excellent recording featuring one unusual distinction in that guitars are hard panned to one side making for a unique listening experience. It kind of adds to the atmosphere actually. A great one!
  • Audience 7.3 to 7.6 in quieter parts  (upgrade).

    PINK FLOYD – Boblingen 1972 (2CD)

    Original price was: $23.49.Current price is: $22.00.
    Audience 8.9 - A really cool recording in that keys, drums and bass sound right next to you but guitar swirls above them, and over your head, and around your ears… VERY nice atmosphere and picked up extremely well by the taper.
  • Audience 7.1 - A very subdued tape, and lots of hiss that at some points is cleaner so no real stress. It is reasonably clear in that you can hear everything, just sounds like it needs a kick in the mid range or some good multi-band compression. Interesting to hear these sort of stripped down Dark Side shows.
  • Audience 7.8 - The recording shines during the quieter passages and gets slightly crowded during intense sections but without any distortion at all. It’s really quite good, I think even the most discerning collector can benefit by having this performance.
  • Audience 7.3 - The good thing about Pink Floyd is that almost every taped concert is relatively clear because they did not overload with bombast and volume.
  • Audience 8.0 - A subdued recording that occupies a pleasant bandwidth for the ears but does not venture into dynamics high or low. It’s very interesting hearing these formative versions of Animals tracks, this recording does deliver enough clarity and separation of instruments to be able to appreciate the happenings on stage – and because Pink Floyd is not a “bombastic” band, you do get periods of music that rate in the mid 8’s so a good, not great, tape.
  • Audience 7.4 - MUCH MUCH better than the previously circulated version! Still not perfect, but this is well worth getting if you want to upgrade your old copy, otherwise if you are a collector and do not have it, you should get it because rock concerts at Carnegie Hall were few and far between.
  • Audience 9.1 - Excellent! Very clear, balanced, and lovely atmosphere. One that will get repeated play for sure.

  • Audience 8.3 - Surprisingly well balanced and bright recording.
  • Audience 8.7 - This is a surprisingly clear tape with a superbly detailed bottom end and would rate MUCH higher if the sound mix brought the guitar and keys up a bit more. These complaints are not the fault of the taper or his gear, but rather the actual PA sound mix at the show, which by the way is VERY good so do not be put off at all, it’s that my preference would be for more guitars.
  • Audience 7.7 - Big stadium sound without a lot of boom, just maybe kind of far back and not clearly defined. You have to turn it up though, there’s TONS of headroom in this tape – somebody needs to remaster it.
