Studio Quality 9.7 - Overall the quality is superb, a couple of songs maybe just a couple notches down but none here that is less than excellent. Obviously these versions are not what was on the album but some are pretty close, just some different mixes, maybe alternate guitar workouts and maybe Mick is trying some different vocalizations but it’s still another angle on a great album. Why do all these “modern” era Stones albums seem to age very well. Because they were and are good, fact!

Audience 8.7 - A good tape, not one that Prince purists might visit often due to how many great soundboards there are but I’ll tell you what, I enjoyed this one. The quality evens out and reveals a tape that may not present a super clear soundfield but it does deliver plenty of realism and vibe. It’s “good enough” to be able to play all the way through and afterwards say “that was a good gig, glad someone recorded it”. Prince Special Invitation Concert Texas Southern University Houston, TX.

Pro Recording 9.1 - The engineers for this live recording opted to not close mic so you have a live recording with lots of atmosphere and probably sounding truer to the actual event than a pure soundboard. The bass is well recorded here, normally you’d expect the sound mix to favor only guitar as that is what the fans are wanting most – but here the mix is rather democratic. Good job!

Pro Studio 9.8 - This is not a soundboard but it is professionally recorded from the stage in a recording studio. Not sure if this was broadcast or not, but the way this sounds, it’s not off-air.

Studio Demos 8.3-8.7 - Quality ranges from just listenable to pretty decent. However what you get here is quite illuminating – I had no idea this band began as a sort of gothic blend of Black Flag, Misfits, and Motorhead. I hear punk influence all through these demos. I think they got onto a cool, raw, guttural vibe and thought “let’s run with this” and it took them down the metal path.

Audience 8.8/Soundboard 9.3 - Very good audience source for the Philly show, perhaps maybe just somewhat lacking in bottom end and of course it’s denser than the clean channel mix of a board tape or broadcast but for 1984, I don’t know I think it’s pretty good. The Cleveland Agora show is excellent quality.

Audience 9.4 - Superb capture! There’s nothing I would change about this tape, it’s got a wonderful electric vibe and strong depth that leaves you wanting more. A great testament to the song craft of Gary Wright. Gary Wright Boston Music Hall Boston, MA USA 11 October 1975 01 -Love Is Alive 02 -Blind Feeling 03 -Dream Weaver 04 -Can't Find The Judge 05 -Kyle 06 -I Know A Place 07 -keyboard solo 08 -drum solo 09 -instrumental 10 -Are You Weepin' -
Audience 9.1 - Atmospheric, where even if it may be recorded from somewhere in the middle, the immersive experience has been well captured. Vocals sound lush and full, and percussion is crisp and well defined with a nice, rounded bottom end holding it all down. This is a decent recording that allows the listener to imagine where they are sitting and how the event sounded, the actual P.A. sound. Prince Gold / Ultimate Live Experience Tour Aftershow Vorst Nationaal, Brussels 28th March 1995 1. People Get Ready 2. The Jam 3. I Believe In You 4. Days Of Wild 5. Proud Mary 6. Jailhouse Rock 7. Funky 8. The Ride 9. Sing A Simple Song 10. The Most Beautiful Girl In The World 11. The Undertaker 12. (Lemme See Your Body) Get Loose 13. Get Wild 14. Gold -
Audience 9.4 - If the house itself sounds great, and your taping with high quality equipment (most likely a small digital unit with a good, dynamic mic and level control), then your result will be something like this. A lot of detail comes through, as does, from time to time, a rowdy audience – that adds to the atmosphere and thankfully never wrecks the audio recording. Prince Kaufleuten '93 Revisited Act II Tour Aftershow Kaufleuten, Zurich 30th August 1993 1. The Sacrifice Of Victor (intro) 2. Deuce And A Quarter 3. Black MF In The House 4. Race 5.

Soundboard 9.5 - Spectacular sound, ferocious performance! This is, without a doubt, one absolute must-have for anyone with even a remote interest in Judas Priest…but I’ll take it even further and say ANYONE who loves hard rock should get this one. Judas Priest - "Unleashed In New York" Mudd Club, New York, NY, USA March 11th, 1979 01 Intro 02 Hell Bent For Leather 03 Delivering The Goods 04 Running Wild 05 Beyond The Realms Of Death 06 The Green Manalishi 07 Victim Of Changes 08 Rock Forever 09 Starbreaker Rob Halford K.K. Downing Glenn Tipton Ian Hill Les Binks -
Pro Studio 9.8 - Glorious sound quality, and the intimate setting of the Record Plant radio broadcasts back in the day is just perfect here because we all know what happened to this guy’s career after Margaritaville took off…would have been hard to reproduce such intimate settings after that. Jimmy Buffett with Roger Bartlett, Jerry Jeff Walker & Bob Livingston The Record Plant Sausalito, CA October 24, 1974 KSAN-FM Broadcast 01. The Wino And I Know 4:46 02. Pencil Thin Mustache 7:35 03.

Peanut Butter Conspiracy > 'Satin Doll' Outro 5:09 Jimmy Buffett - guitar, vocals Roger Bartlett - guitar, backing vocals Bob Livingston - guitar, mandolin, backing vocals Jerry Jeff Walker - guitar, piano, backing vocals -
Pro Studio 9.6 - Crystal clear and in fact does not even sound like it was recorded off air, these are certainly pre-broadcast. The Smiths BBC 1983-1986 01. Reel Around The Fountain (May 31, 1983) (5:58) 02. What Difference Does It Make? (May 31, 1983) (3:20) 03. Handsome Devil (May 31, 1983) (2:48) 04. Miserable Lie (May 31, 1983) (4:42) 05.

Soundboard 9.1 - I rate this as a soundboard because even though I am not 100% sure, the giveaway is the drums. There’s no way this is from the audience as the drums are in stereo, obviously professionally mixed and panned in a stereo sound field. The Smiths Queen Margaret Hall Glasgow, Scotland March 2, 1984 1. -Hand In Glove 2. -Heaven Knows 3. -Girl Afraid 4. -This Charming Man 5. -Pretty Girls Make Graves 6. -Still Ill 7. -This Night Has Opened My Eyes 8. -Barbarism Begins At Home 9. -Back To The Old House 10. -What Difference Does It Make 11. -Reel Around The Fountain 12. -You've Got Everything Now 13. -Handsome Devil -
Soundboard 9.7 - An amazing sounding tape, the bass sounds wonderful and all instruments mixed perfectly. A great one! The Smiths May 4th, 1984 Markthalle, Hamburg, Germany 01. Hand In Glove 3:02 02. Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now 3:26 03. Girl Afraid 2:57 04. This Charming Man 2:59 05. Pretty Girls Make Graves 3:40 06. Still Ill 3:46 07. Barbarism Begins At Home 6:20 08.

This Charming Man 3:10 15. Hand In Glove 3:33 16. Barbarism Begins At Home 7:17 -
Audience 9.2 - A nice and bright tape with a good solid bass holding it all down. The Smiths Royal Court Theatre Liverpool, UK. Feb. 8th, 1986 1. Montagues And Capulets 2. Shakespeare's Sister 3. I Want The One I Can't Have 4. Vicar In A Tutu 5. Frankly, Mr. Shankly 6. Marie's The Name - Rusholme Ruffians 7. The Boy With The Thorn In His Side 8. Cemetary Gates 9. Nowhere Fast 10. What She Said 11. There Is A Light That Never Goes Out 12. Bigmouth Strikes Again 13. William, It Was Really Nothing 14. Meat Is Murder 15. Stretch Out And Wait -
Pro 9.6 -An obviously professionally recorded show, this will certainly provide the listener with a lot to love although I still like more atmosphere on a live recording than what is contained herein. The beginnings and endings do show the presence of an enthusiastic audience. The Smiths "Same Day Again" Oxford Apollo March 18th 1985 01. William It Was Really Nothing 02. Nowhere Fast 03. What She Said 04. Hand In Glove 05. How Soon Is Now? 06. Stretch Out And Wait 07. That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore 08. Shakespears Sister 09. Headmaster Ritual 10. Still Ill 11. Meat Is Murder 12.
