• Seattle 1977 Audience 9.3 - Captured in a smaller venue you get a great sense of the proximity, and the space surrounding taper as bits of chatter and background noises lend ambience. A great recording!

    Upper Darby 1980 FM Broadcast 9.5 - This is from a KBFH reel so yeah, it’s fantastic.

    Seattle 2000 Soundboard 9.6 - A board tape that manages to allow some of the room to seep into the mix so it’s a bit livelier and manages to convince the ear it is not Memorex…or is it?

  • Audience 8.8 - A good, bright recording that features rich bass, and strong vocals in particular. This allows you to hear the musicianship which believe it or not, these guys have! I also appreciate their nods to the classics. W.A.S.P. Elysee Montmartre Paris, France October 28, 1992 Disc 1 01 The Invisible Boy 02 The Real Me 03 L.O.V.E.

  • Audience 9.0/8.5/8.7 - All four discs are very good source tapes with the first two discs being the strongest with a sound quality that sits nicely on the ears, very comfortable, albeit slightly further back in the hall than the other two discs. I think the other shows maybe feature a louder, more up front guitar sound, but at the same time are also a bit more crowded in that frequency although at no time is there distortion present. Disc 3 suffers from a little bit of the typical big sound onto little cassette recorder where it’s just not as clear as you wish but at least you can hear what is going on, and it is not what I would call muddy sounding. Disc 4 is decent in the fact that you have a clear guitar, tone is audible which is crucial when you are listening to Leslie West. All instruments audible and distinct but not rising much above a middle to upper 8 rating. All in all, I am pleased at the overall sound quality in this set seeing as how there are not many really high quality audios of this band.

  • Audience 8.7 - Right in your face, loud and clear, which is appropriate for this hard hitting style of rock and roll.
  • CD 1 - Alkmaar - Soundboard 8.8  /  CD 2 - Ashington - Audience 8.0
  • Audience 7.9 - A loud, and immediate sounding tape, almost as if it was recorded yesterday. Really has that vibe, like you can’t believe it was 1978.
  • Audience 8.8 - Surprisingly clear and spacious, very enjoyable tape! Glen Cornick .... Bass player for Jethro Tull  
  • Audience 9.0 - Solid job by taper to record from a good spot where the sound mix is great, and using good gear he gave us a document that you will be enjoying and playing more than once. The band is in high spirits and put on a good “rock show”. Lovely! Wings Olympia Stadium Detroit, MI 1976-05-08 Disc 1 01. Intro 02. Venus And Mars 03. Rock Show 04. Jet 05. Let Me Roll It 06.

  • Audience 9.1 - A very very nice taping effort, captured here with very decent gear so the quality speaks for itself. Position of taper is good, so a nice mix of the sound from the PA, all in all it’s a good one and highly recommended. There is another Wings LA Forum 1976 but it's taken from June 22 with some filler from the 23rd whereas this is the complete June 23rd show.

  • AM Radio Broadcast 8.7 - This recording is most definitely from AM radio but it is clear and the dual guitar activities are on full display. You won’t get the depth of bass here, and sometimes you realize how dated a recording has to be if it originates off AM radio…but you listen anyway because it’s still good, and it’s still Wishbone Ash.

  • London - Pro 9.0  (BBC)  /  NY - Audience 6.3
  • Audience 8.8 - I am very thankful this recording exists, so few tapes from around this time that are clean and audible. Now, it gets off to a bumpy start but smoothes out and remains consistent for the duration. It’s taken from I would say the middle of the venue but does not suffer from typical distance recordings. The main P.A. system is strong, so you get a good signal here, all instruments present and accounted for. Vocals remain very much up front in the mix, guitars follow.  All in all this is really outstanding and the time period is optimal.
