Soundboard 9.2 -
Pro 9.0 - Both are excellent, bright, snappy recordings. Goes without saying if you don’t have this you should get it! -
Soundboard 9.8 - A professionally made recording that saw a digital only release. This takes that stellar download and presents it in uncompressed, lossless form for you to enjoy. Nothing quite like this mesmerizing blend of Eastern trance psychedelic and Krautrock, the band never lost a step and sound like they traveled through a worm hole in time/space to leap from 1974 to 2013.Agitation Free Kesselhaus Berlin, Germany April 3, 2013 Disc 1 1. -You Play For Us Today 06:37 2. -Sahara City 03:47 3. -In The silence Of The Morning Sunrise 06:36 4. -Shibuya Nights 08:13 5. -First Communication 06:03 6. -Dialogue & Random 02:23 7. -Ala Tul 06:46 8. -Laila 08:38 Disc 2 9. -Nomads 08:02 10. -A Quiet Walk 07:41 11. -Das kleine Uhrwerk 05:15 12. -Malesch 05:27 13. -Drifting 03:34 14. -Rücksturz 05:56 15. -InDaJungl 08:39 16. -Interstellar Overdrive 07:34

CD 1 - Audience 9.6 CD 2 - Audience 8.8 CD 3 - Audience 8.9 Hot crisp and sweet recording. -
Audience 8.3 - Nothing overtly wrong here, but it is a tad on the hot side with a very tiny amount of break up in the highs where it is maybe pushing so hard, this could be tape limitation. It’s a good recording nonetheless. -
Audience 9.8 - Your ears will be telling you this HAS to be a soundboard, then the song ends and you hear the audience right next to you and you say to yourself “thank goodness I picked this one up” yes even though it’s an audience tape it will BLOW YOUR MIND it’s so good.

Soundboard 9.5 - Crisp, intimate, warm, inviting sound. It’s like, I don’t know, being there or something (cliché but true).

Audience 9.1 - Small club vibe permeates this very intimate recording as Al sings his songs with a crack band behind him…often chatting it up with the audience who responds in kind. As I listened, I could not help but think this music really reminds me of Lou Reed, with less bratty New York attitude and more gay San Francisco.

Audience 8.0 - Crisp and loud mids/highs with a little lacking in bottom but very enjoyable nonetheless. The band sometimes sounds a little unsure, but the energy is great. -
Studio Quality 9.5 - Demo Sessions from "No Parole From Alcatrazz ". -
FM Broadcast 9.8 - Frighteningly great, as in near prefect sound mix, beautiful tonal qualities, excellent performance, and plenty of raw power and sheer brilliance on display. Quite frankly, Yngwie era Alcatrazz blows away the Vai period by miles, and I am not an Yngwie geek either. It’s just he’s that good here.Alcatrazz Country Club Reseda CA March 29TH 1984 1 -Jim Ladd Intro 2 -Too Young To Die 3 -General Hospital 4 -Kree Nakoorie 5 -Island In The Sun 6 -Evil Eye 7 -Jim Ladd 8 -Since You've Been Gone 9 -Hiroshima Mon Amour 10 -Jim Ladd 11 -Suffer Me 12 -Desert Song 13 -Jet To Jet 14 -Jim Ladd THE BAND Graham Bonnet lead vocals Yngwie Malmsteen guitar Jimmy Waldo keyboards backing vocals Gary Shea bass backing vocals Jan Uvena drums backing vocals

Audience 8.4 - Very rare show, perhaps slightly on the thin side but screaming guitar and vocals stand out. A must have for any Aldo Nova fan! -
Pro Radio Broadcast 9.2 - Sounds very much like a product of its time, and, it is rather good and Aldo shreds convincingly.
