Audience 8.4 - Surprisingly good, knowing just how few good audience tapers are from this period of the early Johnny Winter And. Now, the tape does show signs of age, mainly with some light hiss present and occasionally the volume decreases but not in a really annoying way at all. This is some fiery playing and a pretty clear, and sometimes dynamic tape.

Audience 7.4 - Consider this a big upgrade to whatever was previously circulating. From original master cassette tape, the sound is focused on guitar primarily, with everything else being somewhat unclear or just not as distinct in the mix. I would call this average, but I am happy to have an upgrade to what was once very much below average. Besides, it’s classic Johnny Winter And – perhaps many people’s favorite line up.

Audience 8.3 - An aged tape that still contains a very good frequency from low to high – maybe a touch on the thin side but overall this whole thing is very fun to listen to.

Audience 7.8 - A large hall sound, but cleanly captured. Kind of sounds like you are there – tons of atmosphere without boominess. Pleasant!

Audience 8.0 - This is an explosive sounding document, thrilling actually. Sounds like it’s right in front of PA on Johnny’s side, but does not distort. So cool!

Audience 8.7 - Is it possible to be too good of a player? I mean, he’s clearly got mastery of the instrument, and the material, but there’s something about a player that gets too close to the edge that excites me, like Rory Gallagher for instance, you know, where it seems at any moment they might just completely take it to the ragged edge – and Joe has a very controlled fire in contrast which is fine, but I need more. Fans will love this performance, he’s clearly at the top here.
