Volume 1: Audience 7.4 - Noisy and a bit cluttered with some clappers nearby. That being said, the remastering has brought out much more of the music and it can be enjoyed.
Audience 7.4 - A rowdy audience, kind of distant sound, a little murky but you can tell what is going on. You can even hear each instrument, so it is not THAT bad. Tapers do get a bit carried away at times. The show is brilliant, the band is just killing it.
Audience 8.0 - Clear recording, if a little distant sounding. Tape is a little bit hot, but so is the band! An enjoyable experience, not the highest fidelity, but this is a slamming show, and the sound, while a touch thin, is actually very good.
Audience 7.4–7.8 - A tape that improves somewhat, still there’s a reason why collector’s all love this show. It’s a real good one from the European leg of the 1970 tour, and the performance is great!
Audience 7.3 - This is a big upgrade to my ears. It used to be abysmal, now you can hear everything. Explosive and violent show, the band is ripping. Tapers can be heard sometimes but it adds to the weird atmosphere.
Audience and Soundboard - The Audience portion is about a 7.2 with a very strained tape trying to contain such an explosive show, but the Soundboard portion is a great relief when it kicks in! Worth getting for that reason, and because the performance is as good as I have ever heard.
Audience 7.8 - Exciting show, recording features a strong guitar, clear vocals, bass and drums present but not as bold. All in all, it’s quite good and the show is fierce.
Audience 7.5 - This sounds a lot better than the old cassette I had for decades. Not nearly as distorted as I remember it being. This is actually not that bad.
Audience 7.3 - At times this does sound much better than the rating. Lots and lots of atmosphere, the guitar echoes in the hall a little, it sounds cool!
Audience 8.6 - Very similar to Nagoya 72 but less distortion present, it’s surprisingly clear, it’s highly enjoyable and the band just played terrific on this Japanese tour. Really worth having!
