Soundboard 9.6 - A very very clean tape, still after all this time it has been properly preserved. The band is in fine form, it’s the right time frame in history and the world is pretty familiar with the band by this time. -
Soundboard 9.1 - This is not a bad board tape, leans just a touch maybe on the more trebly side, giving bass the title of “second guitar” I guess. Still, it’s not a static board, it’s very exciting. Led Zeppelin Eisstadion Mannheim, Germany July 3rd 1980. Disc 1 1. -The Train Kept A Rollin' 2. -Nobody's Fault But Mine 3. -Black Dog 4. -In The Evening 5. -The Rain Song 6. -Hot Dog 7. -All My Love 8. -Trampled Underfoot 9. -Since I've Been Loving You Disc 2 1. -Achilles Last Stand 2. -White Summer - Black Mountain Side 3. -Kashmir 4. -Stairway To Heaven 5. -Communication Breakdown 6. -Rock And Roll -
Audience 9.1 - Capturing the unbridled excitement of the flamboyant maestro in his prime in Los Angeles during perhaps his biggest tour. What more can you ask for? The sound is great (especially the drums!) and the appreciative audience never intrudes onto the recording. Elton John The Forum Inglewood, CA October 5, 1974 Disc 1 01 Funeral For A Friend - Love Lies Bleeding 02 Candle In The Wind 03 Grimsby 04 Rocket Man 05 Take Me To The Pilot 06 Bennie And The Jets 07 Daniel 08 Grey Seal 09 Goodbye Yellow Brick Road 10 Burn Down The Mission Disc 2 11 Band Introduction 12 You're So Static 13 Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds 14 Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me 15 Honky Cat 16 All The Girls Love Alice 17 Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting 18 Crocodile Rock 19 The Bitch Is Back 20 Your Song -
Audience 9.2 - A very interesting tour that featured just two individuals on stage working in coordination to bring audiences a new perspective on Elton’s music…and it works marvelously. Audio quality here is great, and that is a huge benefit to the listener as they get to enjoy the subtleties of what is happening on stage, including the witty banter between songs. Elton John Universal Amphitheatre Los Angeles, CA September 29, 1979 Disc 1 01 Your Song 02 Sixty Years On 03 Daniel 04 Skyline Pigeon 05 Take Me To The Pilot 06 Rocket Man (I Think It's Going To Be A Long, Long Time) 07 Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me 08 Goodbye Yellow Brick Road 09 Roy Rogers 10 Candle In The Wind 11 Ego 12 Where To Now St. Peter 13 I Heard It Through The Grapevine - Singing In The Rain Disc 2 14 Funeral For A Friend 15 Tonight 16 Better Off Dead 17 Island 18 I Think I'm Going To Kill Myself 19 I Feel Like A Bullet (In The Gun Of Robert Ford) 20 Scott Joplin Intro > Bennie And The Jets 21 Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word 22 Mama Can't Buy You Love 23 Part-Time Love 24 Crazy Wate 25 Song For Guy 26 Saturday Night 's Alright For Fighting 27 Pinball Wizard 28 Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On 29 I Saw Her Standing There 30 Twist And Shout 31 Crocodile Rock 32 Back In The U.S.S.R. -
Audience 9.2 - Even with the well known acoustics of Carnegie Hall being not ideal for taping (but very good for “live” concert hall sound), this taper did an admiral job. The sound is crisp, vibrant, and has great atmospherics. Obviously without that over-amped rock star PA insanity you get with most concert hall audience tapes of that time, this is more acoustic, generally speaking and therefore the sound does not get crowded or distorted. GREAT! Gordon Lightfoot October 10, 1979 Carnegie Hall New York, NY USA Disc 1 01 Sea Of Tranquility 02 Cotton Jenny 03 Endless Wire 04 Betty Called Me In 05 Summertime Dream 06 If You Need Me 07 Ghosts Of Cape Horn 08 If You Could Read My Mind 09 Make Way For The Lady 10 Hey You 11 Forgive Me Lord 12 Sundown 13 Hangdog Hotel Room Disc 2 14 Don Quixote 15 It Ain't Easy 16 Race Among The Ruins 17 The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald 18 The Auctioneer 19 Dream Street Rose 20 The Last Time I Saw He 21 Whisper My Name 22 On The High Seas 23 Canadian Railroad Trilogy 24 Old Dan's Records -
Audience 8.9 - Thankfully we have this amazing document because it’s quite fascinating. The sound is clear and bright, and has LOADS of ambience and immersive quality although I would not say it is “deep” or very rich sounding. It’s certainly kind of a typical guerilla recording but that someone went through the trouble and actually got the whole show in admirable fashion to me is the amazing part. The audience response to Donovan is the other amazing part and lends a lot to the excitement of the show. Really, really interesting one!

Pro Recording 9.3 - The reason this is not listed as a soundboard (and it very well may be) is because they way it was recorded sounds like they may have hung microphones rather than direct through board. In this case I find the recording to be more preferable to the “dry” board mix, here you get some atmosphere and it helps immensely!

Audience 8.7 - This tape has one thing really going for it, and that is it is surprisingly clear, maybe not super close to the stage but that means there’s no distortion…there’s also no boominess, and there’s some good live atmosphere. The mix is decent, and overall this tape can be really enjoyed by anyone but let me tell you why I love it – because they play my fave Thin Lizzy song “Opium Trail” so there ya go.

Audience 9.3 - A great, clean, and atmospheric recording that you cannot help but love. It’s one of those shows that you can’t get away from, the band is so on fire…even Prince has to comment about how tight his band is! They are superb and the level of funkiness is off the charts. Lenny Kravitz guests and is actually playing the drums! Newpower Soul Music Festival Tour Aftershow Tivoli, Utrecht 24th December 1998 (am) Disc 1 1. Cissy Strut 2. Superstition 3. Chameleon 4.

Audience/SBRD 8.8/9.3 - This is the good stuff. Both shows excellent, the Osaka aud. tape is quite good, very lively and clear. The band is in their prime, they had loads of confidence and bravado and it shows. Dokken Osaka, Japan December 3, 1985 Disc 1 1. Unchain The Night 2. Tooth And Nail 3. When Heaven Comes Down 4.

Audience 8.8 - This rates highly as a new audio tape discovery from decades ago you might have low expectations but it’s a good, clear (but for Alice being a little low in the mix) and I would say powerful show in sound and performance.

Audience 8.9 - A strong tape here, with very open, spacious sound and pleasant high end. It could benefit from more bottom but it’s not what I would call “thin” sounding.

Audience 8.6 - This old tape has been extensively reworked to present a fan favorite in as good of quality as ever. It’s not a great tape recording but it’s actually kind of a charmer, this is due in part because this old theater was a favorite venue for many of the classic UK prog and Canterbury groups of the time. It’s a very appealing concert, you can kind of sense the band relishes it.

Audience 8.5-9.1 All in all, for what you are privy to hear in this collection (some pretty darn rare bits!), it’s pretty good and listenable. It sounds to me that the band, from 1973 and again a few years later in 1975/78 REALLY progressed, it’s almost like night and day. I do like the early, raw stuff because it shows what a band can become if given half a chance. Judas Priest Rarities 1973-1981 Disc 1 London May 10, 1973 First gig with Halford 1. Cheater 2.

FM Broadcast 8.8 - A radio broadcast that was captured to cassette. I'd almost call it an audience recording because it’s kind of got that same sort of feel except for the vocals and the bass as they have this quality to it that reminds me more of FM broadcasts. Be that as it may, it’s a good one from 1979 which doesn’t seem to be as well represented as either the year before or after. KANSAS MONOLITH IN THE STORM Alpine Valley East Troy, WI.
