Audience 7.4 - MUCH MUCH better than the previously circulated version! Still not perfect, but this is well worth getting if you want to upgrade your old copy, otherwise if you are a collector and do not have it, you should get it because rock concerts at Carnegie Hall were few and far between. -
Audience 7.5 -
Audience 7.1 - A very subdued tape, and lots of hiss that at some points is cleaner so no real stress. It is reasonably clear in that you can hear everything, just sounds like it needs a kick in the mid range or some good multi-band compression. Interesting to hear these sort of stripped down Dark Side shows. -
Audience 8.0 - A very “live” sort of sound, what you might expect to sound like if you were there, albeit with poor seats. Loud, slight echo, a little boominess, but overall I found it to be what I call a decent audience recording. You do adjust to the acoustics, and actually can enjoy this show. -
Audience 7.6 - Gets better the louder you play it. -
Audience 7.5 -
Audience 7.2 -
Audience 7.8 - The recording shines during the quieter passages and gets slightly crowded during intense sections but without any distortion at all. It’s really quite good, I think even the most discerning collector can benefit by having this performance. -
Audience 8.8 and Audience 8.9 (old source and new source featured on disc 2) -
Audience 8.3 - Has that huge outdoor stadium type sound but it helps in a strange way this time. -
Audience 7.6 -
Audience 8.8 - Great one for all to enjoy. -
Audience 7.7 -
Audience 8.5 - Levels need boosting but it’s clear, and a solid recording, very enjoyable! The bonus material (Pittsburgh 1975) is very good and clear, around 8.6 very, very enjoyable. Show is incomplete. -
Audience 7.3 - Thin sounding but clear enough to enjoy, occasional moments of 7.8 – 8.0 when the band is playing their more atmospheric parts. -
Audience 8.7 - This is a surprisingly clear tape with a superbly detailed bottom end and would rate MUCH higher if the sound mix brought the guitar and keys up a bit more. These complaints are not the fault of the taper or his gear, but rather the actual PA sound mix at the show, which by the way is VERY good so do not be put off at all, it’s that my preference would be for more guitars.
