Soundboard 9.5 - Blistering and aggressive in all the best ways. Great guitar tone, and everything mixed expertly together to bring a very appealing soundscape. -
Broadcast 9.3 - A little tiny bit of "old" tape syndrome is present at times, but because this is a well recorded show you hardly notice. There's an odd "click" present during quiet parts but that also disappears when the music is playing. A good one, for sure.Blue Öyster Cult The Old Waldorf San Francisco, CA September 8, 1980 Disc 1 01. Intro - Dr. Music 02. Lips In The Hills 03. Unknown Tongue 04. Cities On Flame 05.

Audience 8.9 - The recording sounds like 1973, but in a REALLY good way! Very clear, up close, levels perfect, and good instrument separation. Great set list too.Chicago Atlanta Stadium Atlanta, GA May 28/1973 Disc 1 1. Magical Mystery Tour 2. State of Union 3. Just You n' Me 4. Saturday in the Park 5. Darlin' Dear 6. Hollywood 7.

Audience 8.9 - Easily one of the best auds of the early Metallica era. This is one that I am sure every Metallica collector already has but if you are just curious, or maybe only recently getting turned on to this stuff, well you gotta get this one.Metallica Stadthalle Mulheim Köln, West-Germany 1984-12-05 Disc 1 01.

Broadcast 9.8 - Excellent and worthy of anyone's collection without hesitation. It does sound VERY 70's in a good way, I mean, it captures the era perfectly.

Soundboard 9.6 - Clean and Balanced, like an album more than a live concert. Still I think you have to add this to your collection because it is so immaculate.Paul McCartney & Wings Last Flight - The Complete 1979 Glasgow Concert Glasgow, Scotland December 17, 1979 Disc 1 1-1 Got To Get You Into My Life 1-2 Getting Closer 1-3 Every Night 1-4 Again And Again And Again 1-5 I've Had Enough 1-6 No Words 1-7 Cook Of The House 1-8 Old Siam, Sir 1-9 Maybe I'm Amazed 1-10 The Fool On The Hill 1-11 Let It Be 1-12 Hot As Sun 1-13 Spin It On 1-14 Twenty Flight Rock 1-15 Go Now 1-16 Arrow Through Me 1-17 Wonderful Christmas Time Disc 2 Glasgow, Scotland December 17, 1979 2-1 Coming Up 2-2 Goodnight Tonight 2-3 Yesterday 2-4 Mull Of Kintyre 2-5 Band On The Run Concerts For The People Of Kampuchea December 29, 1979 2-6 Got To Get You Into My Life 2-7 Every Night 2-8 Coming Up 2-9 Lucille 2-10 Let It Be 2-11 Rockestra Theme -
Audience 9.1 - Nothing to complain about here, the bass is clear and not boomy, guitars maybe not as up front and defined as you would prefer (the benefit of a soundboard tape) but it's present and fine for all intents and purposes. A good show, and good atmosphere - my verdict is that this would be a fine representation of the tour if you were to turn on a person not familiar with the band.Rush 1st Mariner Arena Baltimore, Maryland, USA Friday, April 22, 2011 Time Machine Tour 2011 Disc 1 101.

Audience 9.5 - a legendary recording that has been carefully treated by sensitive ears not wanting to revise history but to bring out every possible nuance, and succeeding. One to have for sure. The second show is also great, ranking a solid 9.2 but also well worth diving into.

Soundboard 9.7 - Amazing! Progressive rock played at a super high level infusing all kinds of rhythms and styles. A great sound mix, you hear every instrument well-balanced but some juicy, punchy bass at the low end really sets this one on a great path to your eardrums.Mutantes Live at Teatro de Arena Ribeirão Preto, São Paulo, Brazil Jun 6 1978 Disc 1 01 - Arena - Ando Meio Desligado 02 - Panis Et Circense - Falsifiquei A Sua Caderneta 03 - Frutificar 04 - Semente da Paixão 05 - Aurora Boreal 06 - Mensageiro da Ladeira (Pororoca) 07 - Gênesis Disc 2 01 - Amanhecer 02 - Paranóia 03 - Te Encontrar 04 - Cidadão da Terra 05 - Magia e Coração 06 - De Que Vale Meu Rock'n'Roll 07 - Rock'n'Roll City Line-up: Sérgio Dias: vocal & guitars Ruy Motta: drums, percussion & backing vocals Luciano Alves: keyboards Fernando Gama: bass, vocals Eunice Matos: backing vocals -
Audience 8.7 - Sounds like 1977, very dated but it's a very clear tape. Doesn't stray too much into the low end of the sound pool, but neither is it a "thin to win" tape. It's a mid range sound, a good one, but kind of narrow in some regards, almost like a REALLY good AM radio sound. I like it nonetheless.Weather Report Kursaal Bern, Switzerland September 26, 19771.

Radio Broadcast 9.3 - A little dated sounding maybe but that is to be expected. The technical audio quality is great, and should please even the most discerning of tastes.RETURN TO FOREVER Theater De Oranjerie Roermond, NL March 24, 197401 Captain Señor Mouse 13:07 02 After The Cosmic Rain 10:20 03 Lenny White Solo 5:02 04 Theme To The Mothership 14:22 05 Space Circus - Part I 1:26 06 Space Circus - Part II After The Cosmic Rain (Coda) 13:53Chick Corea: Fender Rhodes, keyboards Bill Connors: guitars Stanley Clarke: bass Lenny White: drums -
Audience 8.5 - A slighly better than average tape with a lot of live atmosphere, and I don't know how large this hall was but it doesn't feel very large in the recording. Everything is very clear and good separation of instruments too, it can use just a touch more dynamic but otherwise it's strong. He's playing for his people, so you know you are gonna get his best stuff, and this is top shelf (with the crowd understandably right there for every call and response. Great crowd.Rory Gallagher SFX Hall Dublin, Ireland December 29, 1983Disc 101 - tuning, Follow Me 02 - Failsafe Day, band intros 03 - Double Vision 04 - Off The Handle 05 - Moonchild 06 - Lonely Mile 07 - Big Guns 08 - Hoodoo Woman 09 - Drinkin' Down The Bourbon 10 - Bad PennyDisc 201 - Jinx 02 - Tattoo'd Lady 03 - Out On The Western Plain 04 - Ride On Red, Ride On 05 - Wayward Child 06 - Shadow Play 07 - Philby (inc.

Audience 8.7 - Better than average, the tape has dynamics to it and even if vocals sound somewhat distant, the bass and guitar have a nice attack with the low end having that chest pounding quality which adds a lot to the electrifying atmospherics. Rory is particularly savage, playing what is probably a really wild crowd since it is where he is from. The performance is worth the entrance fee, the sound quality is good enough to warrant extended engagement. Full disclosure: There is some tape hiss present although it only becomes obvious when the band is not playing.RORY GALLAGHER Rory's Stompin' Grounds National Stadium Dublin, Ireland December 28, 1978 Disc 1 1.

Audience 9.5 - Recently re-mastered and never sounding better, this old tape is full of life. The sound is bold, and really the only things keeping it from being even higher on the ratings scale is just some minor dtuff. I sometimes hear tape slippage or squeal but it's barely noticeable and infrequent, and there are some other small issues that occasionally pop up but since the sound is so great you just don't even notice any flaws. I think this one belongs in your must have list.Pink Floyd Wishes, Echoes And Desires Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum Uniondale (NY), United States 17th June 1975 Disc 1 1. Sheep 14:37 2.

Audience 8.8 - A good early period show when he was probably in the UK for the first go-round. He made the most of it, with some BBC appearances and a huge gig at Reading which went off well. The recording here is very good, a little hissy and maybe not as clear as we would prefer but it has balls, and everyone is pretty distinct in the mix. The bass and drums are devastating, and Pat is ferocious! The BBC material is excellent.Pat Travers Band Reading Festival Thames-side Arena, Richfield Ave. Reading, UK. August 28th, 1976 1.
