Fantastic modern/old school prog rock from Chile. Released only as a digital download, great care has been taken to realize this as a physical CD, packaged according to the band's aesthetics.

Professional recording only available as a digital download. It's too good to remain vapor ware. A lot of effort and care has been taken to represent this release as close to an official capacity as possible. So, if you love complex, ELP inspired prog with vintage sounding instruments (think Anglagard, ELP, Porcupine Tree). than get this because this Russian band really delivers the goods.

Audience 8.3 - not a good sounding tape, but it gives you enough guitar and vocals too actually keep listening, and you'll actually be glad you stuck with it because here's one thing I get from this: A totally uncirculated tape that shows Led Zeppelin absolutely crushing it, in fact so much so that I really wish this was professionally recorded and released legit because it's a much better show than Long Beach. Most songs are incomplete, audio comes and goes - actually occasionally getting pretty good, but it's hit or miss all the way. I think any Zep collector is going to appreciate this performance for sure - really amazing and for that I think you have to give this a listen.

Pro Studio 9.6 - The best I have ever heard regarding these tapes and these tracks...some of which have been around but not in my memory have all of them been so diligently compiled. The whole package is a thing of beauty. The Rolling Stones Art Collins Tapes Vol 4 01. Just My Imagination (Running Away with Me) [06:33] 02. Miss You [01:57] 03. Lies [04:52] 04.

Pro Studio 9.5 - A particularly well done mastering job on all these tracks, some of which we've all heard before but not quite as clean and clear.

Audience 8.9 - Excellent quality, I did find it worthwhile in almost every regard but keep in mind it is a large venue so it is not a close, tight, and super dynamic recording. It is, however, clear and well done, and overall the sound is picked up well from the main P.A. system, it has force, it has clarity, it has a good "live" quality to it with all the atmosphere of being there.

Audience 8.7 - A new re-mastering has taken what was once a very muddy recording and breathed significant new life into it. I mean, if ever there was a time to be collecting it is right now. So while it still might be considered as an average audience recording, the fact is that there is much more in this tape than what was once believed and which is why it flew under the Sabbath collector radar. But it's actually pretty good, I can only be a little critical if I analyze what is happening at the lower end here, not much definition and guitar blends into the bass somewhat and provide a volume backdrop that is "dark" and foreboding but not a mess either. I think people should give this re-mastered version a chance, I did and I am very glad I did. Black Sabbath 1971-01-18 City Hall Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, UK 01. Paranoid 02. N.I.B. 03. War Pigs 04.

Audience 9.3 - Excellent quality, in fact I think this is a professional recording done on or very close to the stage. It has certain tell-tale qualities, like there being minimal audience noise and very clear, well-balanced band. Good mix here, even without Duane present I think most listeners will find this most welcome especially considering two songs are played featuring Johnny Winter.

Audience 8.7 - A somewhat crude tape that manages to still present some meat you can savor. The slightly overloaded tape can still allow everything to be heard although drums are not very distinct (cymbal washes do clear the mix because they sit in the high band range) and neither are the vocals - but here's the saving grace: The guitar is present and accounted for and you really NEED that with this band because this guy is phenomenal.

Soundboard 9.0 - A VERY animated and live sounding recording. There is nothing sterile about this! It bristles with electric mayhem and tension, sometimes it goes a little over the edge (takes a minute for the mix to even out a little bit - and it seems to lean slightly onto upper mid/high end leaves some of the balls of the bass out, but there's enough meat here to add some bass and I think once you do that you'll have a real banger with this one. It's already great, but I'd certainly season it to taste.

Radio Broadcast 9.4 - Perhaps one of the best live documents in existence, even if there are marginally better sounding shows out there (although this one is killer), this tops it for exuberance and swagger.

Audience 8.7 - A little subdued maybe, but all the instrumentation is clearly heard, and dynamically it resides in the middle band frequencies and has a decent bass response but at the expense of maybe guitars which seem to sit just behind the bass. Considering the gig (inside a prison) I have to say it's a very good job, and worthy of a spin. ULI JON ROTH Klingelpuetz Prison Cologne, Germany 1979-10-03 2nd Show 01. Sundown 02. Earthquake 03.

Soundboard 9.4 - Excellent tape for all those who actually want to hear what the band is doing. Drums are massive, and the guitars sound on point and distinct.

Soundboard 9.2 - In this mix, vocals are front and center, followed next by drums (cool) and guitars which sound just evil AF. This is surely one all fans will slay for (see what I did there?).
