Aud 8.3 - A loud tape, but surprisingly clear and enjoyable. Comes from a very low gen or master source, very crisp in every frequency, as if optimized for a commercial release – must be a remaster because I do not remember this being so good. -
Aud 7.2-7.5 - A fluctuating rating because I can hear the potential for this tape as it depends on what he is playing where it is average and where it is pretty decent. Tape noise is a factor, and that can be removed (modern technology). Otherwise, Jimi is present, especially his singing. -
Aud 8.8 - This recording sounds hella-killa man! Bonus material on the other disc is also very excellent. A fantastic collector item that you do not want to ignore if you do not have this material. -
Audience 8.5 - Ripping show! Monster guitar shred -
Studio quality with some tape hiss 8.7 -
CD 1 Aud 8.2 Nice version here, must be a very low gen tape source. CD 2 Aud 8.3 I like this recording a lot, it’s a touch overloaded but you hear a very realistic sound, pretty close to what you may have heard standing close to the mains. Maybe a little bit of tape saturation (not distortion, two different things!), otherwise this one is very fun to hear putting you right in the middle of it all. -
CD 1 Aud 6.8 This one is pretty rough, but if you got Vol. 1, than this set completes the Texas picture (with the exception of the Houston gigs). CD 2 Aud 7.2 -
Aud 7.4 - Lo-Fi sound to be sure but the upside is that it’s not a sludge wall of sound mess here. Guitar is reasonably clear and louder than everything else by far as it sort of cuts right through this tapes’ audio spectrum. Drums peak through the haze next followed by distinguishable bass notes, and Jimi is remarkably clear as far as hearing every word he sings. Let your ears adjust to the narrow bandwidth and you are going to enjoy this show a lot more. It has many good qualities to offset a lack of sonics. Less loud songs shine through the clouds. -
Aud 7.5 - A very decent and clear recording from perhaps a little further back in the hall than one would prefer, but guitar is prominent, then drums and bass with Jimi vocals a little bit behind the noise. Also, I am glad the sound has a little separation, enough to discern everything that is going on, so big plus there! -
Aud 7.1 - Here’s an interesting situation, a marginal recording that is clear and audible. How can that be? It’s a transistor cassette deck recording, but the capture is centered, and the band is actually clear, just lo-fi. A recent remastering really brought out some of the music and to my ears lifted this tape out of “curiosity only” and into actual collectable status. -
Pro Studio Quality 9.8 The BEST collection you can find for the money. Put together by people who wanted to give you only “the goods” and not just endless noodling or naked mixes. Fantastic and intoxicating! -
Aud 8.2 to 8.8 - The sound varies a little bit as the set progresses, mainly because it is a rotating stage and therefore sounds great when the stage is in front of the taper. The DVD is fascinating, a real treasure! -
Pro Studio Quality 9.3 features Stephen Stills and other luminaries of the time. A nice artifact! -
Aud 7.7 - Guitar is the dominant instrument on this tape, which features qualities I can appreciate knowing that there is so much worse out there than this. The DVD features a short segment of footage synced properly with the audio so collectors will enjoy that. -
Soundboard 9.1 - Acetates and live noticeable wear from the acetates but everything is clearly heard. -
