Pro Sound 9.1 -
Audience 9.2 - This is a really decent recording, it does sort of lean towards an upper mid range emphasis but not to the tape’s detriment, it’s just that is where most of the action is. The drums have a realistic sound, very live and thunderous without being boomy. Vocals are incredibly present and up front here, so this recording has an immediate impact when you listen and it captivates you all the way through to the end.

Soundboard 9.5 - Stellar quality, with a mix that showcases drums and drums as they should sound. The overall timbre of the sound is warm, a lot of depth and backup vocals are not buried, it’s really a nicely rounded and rather democratic mix.

Audience 8.7 - I had a hard time determining whether it was the recording or the PA that caused this tape to fall below the usually excellent quality recordings coming out of the Inglewood Forum around this same time. It’s not terrible; the main issue was an overcrowding of the middle bandwidth. So you get plenty of bottom end and soaring high end (where most guitar leads and vocals, and yes, cymbals are clear) but a lack of separation in that crucial middle. That leaves us with a tape clearly made on decent gear, somewhere in the middle of the venue it sounds like, and likely a master source (zero tape noise), but just not delivering the kind of clarity you would want when you are trying to hear the magical guitar interplay, especially Joe Walsh who just has his own musicality that perks your ears up. Still, a good tape that is worthy of exploration and much appreciated being from that wonderful line-up that featured perennial fave Joe Walsh.

Soundboard 8.9 - Quality of recording is excellent, although they have to tweak the mix during the show especially the beginning of show 1, but that aside, it is a fantastic document! -
Seattle 1970 FM Broadcast 9.4 - So good to have clear and vibrant live Doors recordings…there’s just not enough of them out there. Hypnotic, and with Jim at the helm it’s a feast for the imagination as to what shenanigans were happening on stage. Cool as HECK! Detroit 1970 FM Broadcast 9.2 - Nice, clean, concise and this is how I want to hear The Doors. There’s so much subtlety and intrigue and you need to be able to hear everything clearly…and with this tape you do. For the track listing on this one, please review the images as we posted a clear photo of the track sheet. -
Audience 8.0 - Very good bit of history right here and it sounds pretty darn good too. Definite Must! -
Audience 6.8 - Jim is clearly audible despite the lo-fi. -
Soundboard 8.7 - To my ears it’s a soundboard, a little hissy, and somewhat noisy mix but definitely one you can get into. -
Audience 7.7 - Clear! -
Audience 7.2 - Distant and a little muddy but all instruments and especially Jim are there. Worth it! -
