Soundboard 9.7 - Killer! -
Soundboard 8.8 - Very decent, smoothly mixed no major tape problems. Lacks just a touch of dynamics keeping it from the 9.0’s on my rating. -
Aud 8.3 - Surprisingly clear, at full volume there’s maybe some crowding as drums fight for attention in the mix, but basically what you have here is a great idea of what an early 70’s GG concert would have sounded like. Realistic, and the band is just so good, more rocking and less quirky maybe. -
Soundboard 8.9 - Would have rated higher but the tape breaks a little at the top where the levels are so hot, not distorted, just that fragile old analog tape overloading signal noise but only during the really heavy sections where the whole band is cooking. Still highly enjoyable! -
Soundboard 9.2 - Kick ass! -
Audience 8.8 - Tremendous wide open sound field that not only captures a great band at a great time but also some dynamics of the hall. Immersive experience. -
Soundboard 9.5 - Does it get any better than this? No. That is the simple answer. Warning: You’d better strap yourself in for this one folks, I am not kidding.

CD 1 and 2: Madrid - Aud 7.8 - Focus on the guitars here, so less than stellar but good for listening to the amazing guitar interplay which is superb during this show CD 3 and 4: Niagara Falls - Aud 8.4 - A remastered version of a pretty good gig, sound is very bright and lively, and that helps convey the manic energy of the band and audience, who respond overwhelmingly. Both shows offer benefits to the Priest fans. -
Audience 8.7 - Starts off a little rough but gets better and better (audience clapping notwithstanding). -
Audience 9.3 - Superb recording of a band firing on all cylinders. -
Audience 8.8 - Really crisp and vibrant -
Soundboard 9.8 - Almost perfect. -
Soundboard 9.0 - hot show! A band that always put on a good, solid, tight and professional show. Total pro's and that's why we still love them.
