Audience 9.7 - The question you might ask is “do I really need another version of this?” and the short answer is “Hell Yes”. Why? Because technology has advanced to the point where you can take multiple sound sources (in this case four) and merge or “matrix” them together seamlessly to create a sonic tapestry so good it takes your breath away. That is what this is…breathtaking. Led Zeppelin - "Ultimate Blueberry Hill: Live at the LA Forum 9/4/70" Recorded Friday evening, September 4, 1970 at the Forum, Inglewood, California STEREO MATRIX of 4 audience recordings synchronized & mixed together in varying levels: * Source #1 = Neutral Zone bootleg CDs [the Blimp Records / TMOQ recording]. * Source #2 = Rubber Dubber Records bootleg LP. * Source #3 = tape source [of Mud Dogs bootleg]. * Source #5 = tape source [of Tarantura (2000) bootleg]. The lesser fidelity tape sources #4 [a/k/a Tarantura (1997)] and #6 (the most recently surfaced one) have been used to patch the introduction which is almost wholly missing from the other circulating tapes.

Soundboard 9.7 - Not all board tapes are exceptional, even if they sound good. What makes for an exceptional one is whether it sounds “live” or not, and this one most definitely does! Foghat Selland Arena, Fresno, CA April 11, 1978 Band line up Dave Peverett - guitar, vocals (passed away February 7, 2000, aged 56) Rod Price - guitar, slide guitar (passed away March 22, 2005, aged 57) Craig MacGregor - bass (passed away February 9, 2018, aged 68) Roger Earl - drums (currently still alive, age 73) Total Time = 76:34 Set list 01 Intro 02 Fool For The City 03 My Babe 04 Stone Blue 05 Drivin' Wheel 06 It Hurts Me Too 07 Honey Hush 08 Guitar Solo 09 I Just Want To Make Love To You 10 Home In My Hand 11 Slow Ride 12 Chateau Lafitte '59 Boogie

Excellent Soundboard recording of a highly regarded Texas rock group prominent in the mid '70's. They played an original, hybrid progressive, upbeat hard rock along with more Austin, Texas flavored "Tex-Mex" Southern infused rock and roll...like I said a hybrid style. Unfortunately it did not take hold anywhere outside of Austin, so it remained undiscovered but certainly in Texas the name is extremely well respected as it should be. Well worth discovering for yourself!

Audience 8.6 - A surprise because the inclination is to assume this tape will suck – and it’s true it is not high-fidelity but it’s clear and decent and being one of those very few pre-1978 tapes I feel it is a must have for Priest fans. Rob sounds so confident it’s scary. Judas Priest The Greyhound Croydon, UK. May 1, 1977 1. Call For The Priest 2. Diamonds And Rust 3. Victim Of Changes 4. Raw Deal 5. Here Come The Tears 6. Dissident Aggressor 7. The Ripper 8. Sinner 9. Genocide 10. Starbreaker

Audience 8.8 - A very good recording for the time period, and being a hole-in-the-wall venue in the great state of Texas I can imagine what those Texans must have thought about these leather-clad English hellhounds! Judas Priest Crazy Horse Saloon Killeen, TX. March 25th, 1978 1. Exciter 2. White Heat, Red Hot 3. The Ripper 4. Sinner 5. Beyond The Realms Of Death 6. Victim Of Changes 7. Genocide 8. Starbreaker 9. Tyrant

Complex prog rock inspired by Genesis primarily but you will hear a lot of different things that might remind you of any of a dozen other bands. These guys were just playing music they loved and did not mind if it crossed genre too much. They began in Houston in 1970, the CD contains liner notes so you get more of their history. Very cool stuff!

Audience 9.3 - Another superb audience highly rated for not only the good clean capture but also for the show itself and the dynamics and effect it all has on the listener emotionally. It’s truly a time capsule, and the DVD is the icing on the cake. This set is now expanded to include the soundboard portion of the show. This is a must own!

Audience 8.7 - It’s definitely rare to find unknown Allman Brothers recordings featuring Duane, and here we have one new to circulation. The sound quality is very good, it really is from the master (obvious when you hear how clean it is) and it sounds like it has been gently mastered for optimum fidelity. A great find! Allman Brothers Place Des Nations Montreal, Canada Sept. 3rd, 1971 CD 1 1. -Statesboro Blues 2. -Trouble No More 3. -Don't Keep Me Wonderin' 4. -Done Somebody Wrong 5. -One Way Out 6. -In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed 7. -Whipping Post CD 2 1. -Jam - Layla tease - Jam - Revival 2. -You Don't Love Me - Soul Serenade - You Don't Love Me (reprise)

Soundboard 9.7 - This is not just a good board tape – it’s a tape that has loads of atmosphere to go with the upbeat party vibe of the band. It’s simply amazing sounding.

Audience 9.7 - If you were previously unaware of this tape, get ready for a supersonic blast of low down and dirty twin guitar American Blues Rock and Roll like you won’t believe. I don’t know how it can much better than this, I mean, it’s like you’re sitting right in front of the stage. (please be aware there is a very loud whistle blast after Boney Maroney...you've been warned!)

Audience 9.6 - Been looking for a great sounding 1981 show? Yeah, me too. Now, I am happy to say we have found it. This is as good as you would ever hope for, spacious and warm, with plenty of headroom to increase your volume, tone, whatever you want and it just gets better. Hasn’t left my player in a week.

Audience 9.2 - Startling realism, where it’s as if Tony is playing right in your living room. Should be in every self-respecting Sabbath fan’s collection.
