  • Audience 8.7 - This tape is surprisingly clear, it is not super dynamic but it is nice and clear. It’s almost like a REALLY good AM radio broadcast. It has a narrow sound field, but it is comfortable there, and comfortable to your ears. Phil sounds like he’s singing right next to you, pretty cool.

  • Audience 8.8/9.3 - So, you know how huge the O2 Arena is, right? Well it sounds like a huge arena, but aside from the large mega stadium ambience, this is not that bad at all. It’s what you call “immersive” because you really can imagine yourself there. The audio quality itself is very good, as far as the tonality and levels, etc. The “live mix” is typical of an event like this, tons of atmosphere, party vibe (with about 15,000 of your closest friends), and Prince as always delivering the goods. The after show audio is extremely well done, sounding quite intimate and very warm.

  • Radio/TV Broadcasts 9.4 - I have learned to trust most Prince titles now, generally speaking there is great care taken to preserve the fidelity, to obtain master sources, and to package appropriately. That seems only fitting when dealing with an artists’ of Prince’s caliber…and I mean that most sincere. The list of contents for this title is extremely long and extensive and I did not write it up. I do have an image that I am willing to email if you need to see the track listing. It does show the contents in detail. My apologies, but trust me this is a great title and all the info is on the artwork.
  • Soundboard 9.8 - A beautifully mixed audio, with a touch of “verb” that allows for some air around the music. Crisp, but not crispy, warm, punch when warranted, and clean but not sterile.

  • Central Park 1971 Audience 8.6 - The limitations of this tape are mainly the over-riding level of tape his present, although it’s been re-mastered to the degree that much was removed without sacrificing highs. The actual recording is not bad, and even with some hiss, the tape does not sound like it is multiple gens down. Highs are good, lows are present, mix is not terrible (guitars are somewhat low, but this is a live mix situation and not the taping). Copenhagen 1972 Audience 8.8 - A very clear tape with an emphasis on high end crispness (not brittle or irritating, just very clear in the high end), mix favors vocals, drums, then keys and guitars in the same range.

  • Miami 2019 Audience 8.8 - Tremendous atmosphere while retaining good and clear sound. It’s understandable being that the band plays enormous stadiums that you may have problems getting a solid capture, but provided that you aren’t in the nose bleeds, and your gear is decent, you can really get something worthwhile on tape with PA systems being so good. This is one such job. Charlie’s last gig with The Stones, and thankfully a good capture of the event. St. Louis 2021 Audience 9.2 - This one is right in the pocket!  Solid low end, with some genuine gut punching drums and bass without being boomy at all.  Vocals, nicely positioned in the mix, and both guitars are clear.  Really I have to say this is a joy to listen to and doesn’t have to be a soundboard to qualify.

  • Audience 9.0 - This is a heroic taping accomplishment, to be able to get virtually all of the performers in really nice quality, it’s an effort to be admired. While lacking super-definition, it does have good dynamics and clarity overall, it’s not thin, and it is not muddy. It’s pretty darn good!

  • Audience 8.6 - In contrast to the Finland show, this one doesn't have the boominess but it is thinner sounding, however it is very clear and Kay is much more audible. Guitar, drums, and vocals very clear albeit thin. I found the bass to be lovely, round, very cool to hear such detail! This is NOT a muddy recording, and being 1970 that means you get the classic songs performed close to the records.

  • Audience 9.5 - Astounding! This, this is beyond devastating. Personally, I have to put this right up there with hearing Museo Rosenbach for the first time. How do I arrive at this?  Because, in 2021 you sort of don’t expect this old 70’s era Italian prog band to move the needle other than just reliving past glories. Oh how wrong that is…for starters, their SOUND is massive, powerful, dynamic, energetic, and TIGHT. Their material is amazing, complex, unpredictable, moving, and absolutely just devastating. I challenge anyone to find a modern band that can pull something like this off with such panache. Heavy is more than just distortion folks…it’s a lot of stuff and these guys just know what heaviness is from decades of experience.

  • Audience 8.8 - It’s hard to express exactly what makes a particular recording or gig special, mainly because it is all very subjective. But, I have been collecting music since 1982, so I feel I have earned some credibility ha ha! So let me tell you why this one is special. Placed right in front of the main P.A. speakers, this sound is brutal. Sure, the first 45 seconds are a mess, but it gets better, and man, is this a rocking good time!  The sound is ferocious, threatening at any moment to destroy the tape completely, but it doesn’t. It’s hot, it’s loud, but it’s also very real, as if happening at the very moment you are hearing it. The Who in 1970, in Detroit (Rock City!), playing Tommy (and other great tracks) in front of an appreciative audience (without incident!).  Everyone sounds great here, and you have a front row seat.

  • This collection has been remastered and despite that, there are still one or two tracks that show the ravages of time. One can only assume some of it was not saved, as was the BBC’s policy of not giving a shit, therefore it was up to fans to record from a radio broadcast themselves. Most of this does sound very good, a worthy effort for sure and some of this I’d never heard before. The Who - BBC Sessions 1965-1971 {Remastered & Complete} Disc 1 01. Good Lovin' 02. 'Pete interview #1' 03. Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere 04. Leaving Here 05. Just You and Me, Darling 06. 'Pete interview #2' Recorded: Aeolian Hall studio 2, Bond Street, London UK; Monday 24 + Tuesday 25 May 1965 Broadcast: BBC Radio 'Saturday Club': Saturday 29 May 1965 Producers: Jimmy Grant/Brian Willey Sources: transcription disc Notes: The Who's second session for the BBC actually appears to have been a double-date. On the 24th, a three-hour session produced: 'Good Lovin'', 'Anyway Anyhow Anywhere', 'I Don't Mind' and 'Daddy Rolling Stone'. The next afternoon they performed: 'Leaving Here', 'Please Please Please' and 'Just You and Me, Darling'. The sessions tapes were wiped and the selections here are all that has survived on copies of "Top of the Tops" transcription discs #31 & #34. The song selection here is dominated by soul covers picked by Roger, who was still the undisputed leader of the group. Yet, it was Pete who got to do the interviews and talk about the group's beginnings and prospects. 07. The Good's Gone 08. 'Pete interview' 09. My Generation 10. La La La Lies 11. Baby Don't You Do It Recorded: Aeolian Hall studio 1, Bond Street, London UK; Monday 22 November 1965 Broadcast: BBC Radio 'Saturday Club': Saturday 27 November 1965 Producers: Jimmy Grant/Brian Willey Sources: 01-04 transcription disc; 05 off-air recording Note: The third session was again recorded live in studio and produced completed takes of: 'It's Not True', 'The Good's Gone', 'La La La Lies', 'My Generation' and 'Baby Don't You Do It'. The sessions tapes were wiped and the selections here are all that has survived on copies of "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #57 and an off-air recording made by a fan. By now, Pete's role as the main provider of song material has been firmly established. 12. Man With Money 13. 'Pete interview' 14. Substitute 15. Dancing In the Street 16. You Rang Recorded: Aeolian Hall studio 1, Bond Street, London UK; Tuesday 15 March 1966 Broadcast: BBC Radio 'Saturday Club': Saturday 19 March 1966 Producers: Jimmy Grant/Brian Willey Sources: 01-04 transcription disc; 05 off-air recording Note: For this fourth session, the band recorded: 'Barbara Ann', 'Substitute', 'You Rang', 'Man with Money' and 'Dancing In The Street'. The sessions tapes were once again wiped and the selections here are all that has survived on copies of "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #73 and an off-air recording made by a fan. 17. 'Intro' 18. Disguises 19. 'Pete interview' 20. I'm A Boy 21. So Sad About Us Recorded: Playhouse Theatre, Northumberland Avenue, London UK; Tuesday 13 September 1966 Broadcast: BBC Radio 'Saturday Club': Saturday 17 September 1966 Producers: Jimmy Grant/Brian Willey Source: transcription disc Note: Fifth session, which produced: 'I'm A Boy', 'Disguises', 'Heatwave', 'So Sad About Us' and a cover of the Lovin' Spoonful's 'On The Road Again'. The sessions tapes were wiped and the selections here are all that has survived on copies of "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #99. In an attempt to control the mixing balance, John suddenly turned his bass up in the middle of 'Disguises'. The balance engineer on the session did not bother correcting this and as a result the sound turns into a muddy mess from that point on (with the mixdown compressor working on overload). 'So Sad About Us' was left off the official 'BBC Sessions' release from 2000 for unknown reasons. 22. Run Run Run 23. Boris The Spider 24. 'Pete interview' 25. Happy Jack 26. See My Way Recorded: Playhouse Theatre, Northumberland Avenue, London UK; Tuesday 17 January 1967 Broadcast: BBC Radio 'Saturday Club': Saturday 21 January 1967 Producers: Jimmy Grant/Bill Bebb Source: transcription disc Note: For this sixth session, the band recorded: 'Happy Jack', 'Run, Run, Run', 'Boris The Spider', 'See My Way', 'Don't Look Away' and 'So Sad About Us'. The sessions tapes were once again wiped and the selections here are all that has survived on copies of "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #117. Disc 2 01. 'Intro' 02. I Can See For Miles 03. Pictures Of Lily 04. Summertime Blues 05. I Can't Reach You 06. Our Love Was 07. A Quick One (While He's Away) 08. Relax 09. My Generation - Boris The Spider - Happy Jack - My Generation 10. Pictures of Lily [Alternate Mono Mix] Recording & Broadcast Production: De Lane Lea Studio, Kingsway, London UK; Tuesday 10 October 1967 Broadcast: BBC Radio 'Top Gear'; Sunday 15 October 1967 Producers: Bernie Andrews/Bev Philips Sources: 01-02,07,09-10: tape 03-06: transcription disc w/ patches from tape sources 08: off-air recording Note: This seventh session marked the first time the BBC allowed any musical act to record for them outside their own studios. Recorded on this day were five jingles, 'My Way' (not broadcast) and alternate versions of 'Pictures Of Lily' & 'A Quick One While He's Away'. Also readied for the broadcast were early mixes of 'I Can See For Miles'*, 'Relax', 'Our Love Was', 'I Can't Reach You', 'Summertime Blues' & 'Someone's Coming'. These songs were already recorded on an earlier date and would eventually appear on official Who product with a slightly different mix (although it took more than 30 years for 'Summertime Blues'). This is the first Who BBC session that has at least partially survived on tape on the BBC archives, as the jingles and 'A Quick One' do not appear on copies of "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #157 & #160, yet appear in crystal clear quality on the official release. Strangely enough, the two TOTP discs seem to have been the source for the other tracks on the official CD, all of which are marred by a voiceover. The versions here are uninterrupted from start to finish (with the exception of the ending of 'Our Love Was'), for the first time ever. As a bonus, I have added a clean mono mix of 'Lily' with better fidelity than the BBC source which has not circulated before. * The 45RPM & BBC versions both contain a heavy bass dub that was imposed on the mono album master. The dubs differ, to ensure the BBC got a unique master recording. 11. 'Pete interview' 12. Pinball Wizard Broadcast: BBC TV 'Top of the Pops'; Tuesday 27 March 1969 Source: transcription disc Note: Roger/Pete(?) sing along with studio version. Part of the interview has appeared on a bonus disc that came with a limited edition of the official 2000 release. Tracks are sourced from "Top of the Tops" transcription discs #232 & #233. 13. 'David Wigg interviews Pete Townshend' Source: transcription disc Note: Sourced from "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #289 (released 20-5-1970). 14. The Seeker Recorded: IBC Studios, London UK; 19 February 1970 & BBC Television Centre, London UK, Thursday 19 March 1970 Broadcast: BBC TV 'Top of the Pops'; Thursday 19 March 1970 Source: transcription disc Note: Roger sings live over the studio version of 'The Seeker' for "Top Of The Pops", with the rest of the band miming along. John forced a re-shoot after the director did not include a shot of him in the first take. Sourced from "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #283. 15. I'm Free 16. The Seeker 17. Heaven And Hell 18. Shakin' All Over - Spoonful (Medley) 19. Substitute 20. Pinball Wizard Recorded: IBC Studios, London UK; Monday 13 April 1970 Broadcast: BBC Radio 'Dave Lee Travis'; Sunday 19 April 1970 Producer: Paul Williams Source: 01-04: transcription disc w/ patches from tape sources 05-06: tape Note: The last formal band session for the Beeb and again recorded outside an official BBC studio. 'Heaven and Hell' was later released in a slightly reworked version as a B-side to 'Summertime Blues'. Like the October 1967 session, this one is believed to have survived on tape on the BBC archives. But even so, the official album used the "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #286 as its source for Tr. 01-04, with voiceover over the intro's and outro's. The versions presented here are uninterrupted from start to finish (with the exception of 'Seeker') for the first time. 21. 'Keith Altham talks to Pete Townshend' Source: transcription disc Note: Sourced from "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #304 (released 2-9-1970). 22. I Don't Even Know Myself Recorded: Olympic Studio, Barnes, London UK; 1971 Source: tape Note: This one is a bit of a mystery. No details about it are given on the official BBC session CD. It is the same take that was released in 1971 as the B-side to 'Won't Get Fooled Again' but here we get a clean mono mix that differs in a few places from the released version. Believed to have been recorded in 1971 during the Who's Next sessions.

  • Audience 9.3 - It never ceases to amaze me that after all these years tapes like this still keep surfacing. This is really clear and bright, I am having a tough time finding things to complain about here. There’s plenty of headroom to flavor the sound to your liking, if you want to add more bass, yeah, this is just a perfect palate to do so. Anything you do will only make it even better because the core audio is uniquely suited for attenuating without negative consequence.

  • Audience 8.4 - They should call this tape “Noise In The Attic” ha ha! Actually, I am being very tough here, it’s a bright tape, it favors high end but is not too screechy…I just need more low end personally. That being said – vocals are in the front here, followed by Joe Perry, so that is crucial to this being a worthwhile listen. Taper has to hide his gear once or twice, so you occasionally hear the inside of his coat. Not too many 1975 period tapes out there, I am thankful for this one…you will be too, especially when the coast is clear and taper brings the mic back out (makes for a really refreshing audio moment!).

  • Soundboard 8.8 - A very old sounding tape that received a recent “facelift” giving it some more punch while reducing tape noise (without compromising any high end). What you end up with is another very good early performance (whilst the band was still doing some Pretties For You numbers) in very good quality. I never get tired of the early Alice Cooper stuff, even if I still don’t understand “Sun Arise” ha ha!

  • Audience 9.4 - Before you write off the late 80’s Eric Clapton, you REALLY need to look deeper for a minute. This performance, and this recording, clearly demonstrates the reason why one should examine the totality of an artist’s career, particularly if said artist was as prolific and talented as Mr. Clapton. The edgy, electrified sound of Clapton’s Cream days is gone and that is ok so long as you still get the TALENT, and many of Clapton’s performances (at least on tape) sometimes lacked the elements that you would have hoped for, despite his undeniable songwriting prowess…it was the PLAYING of the guitar, and the sound of said guitar, that we craved. Here, along with his pal Mark Knopfler, all of that is delivered and the audio quality does the whole thing justice because it is excellent. I think playing with Mark elevated Eric’s game. Hearing them do “Money For Nothing” together was cool, and Mark decided to sing in his own “bluesy” way in deference to Eric. Sweet! Eric Clapton feat.

  • Studio Quality 9.5 - I am thankful for this because it has further taught me to appreciate and respect Clapton’s musicality, and his desire to remain true to himself first and foremost. If you listen to this music without preconditions you realize it’s pretty good and if the man’s name was not Eric Clapton, you’d be thinking this guy should be much bigger.

  • Audience 8.7 - This recording is better than it has a right to be, after all it is in a big stadium, early 70’s so the gear, if it doesn’t weigh 80 pounds, has to be cheap crap…but, dang it this sounds cool!  Granted, instrument separation isn’t great (it is good enough), and it isn’t super close up, but all that still does not detract from how stompin’ this is. Great fun!

  • Truly somewhat of an oddball release, this album stems from a long lost rehearsal session by a bunch of stoned South African teenagers in the late 60's. Not much was even known about them, not even at the time as the band never gigged or recorded a legitimate album. Still, the music reverberates with manic acid rock intensity. You've been warned!
  • Soundboard 9.2 - Again we find Lou and company blazing his way across Europe and leaning on some old, and some new…but mostly older tunes which always work well because there is so much room for the band to stretch out. Good stuff here.

  • Soundboard 9.3 - An interesting tape because it’s from soon after losing Duane, and I don’t think there’s many tapes from that period immediately after his death. THE ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND Price Hall, Jackson, Alabama March 23, 1972 CD 1 1. Statesboro Blues 2. Done Somebody Wrong 3. Ain't Wastin' Time No More 4. One Way Out 5. Trouble No More 6.

  • Audience 8.6 - Not a bad tape at all, and seeing how there’s now all of what, one known live tape of this band I would say that is kind of cool. The band?  Well they are in their final incarnation here, and playing is very loose and experimental…but honestly they needed to ditch the flautist as he contributes not only nothing, but he’s in the way. Let the guitarist do his thing ‘cause he seems to be able to turn on the switch and lay down bursts of awesome psychedelic insanity.

  • FM Radio Broadcasts 9.6 - Excellent as always – sound and performance. Prince Tracks 01-04 1985-03-30 Syracuse - Carrier Dome Tracks 05-10 1990-07-22 Madrid - Estadio Vicente Calderon 01.

  • Soundboard 9.4 & Audience 8.6 - the first few discs are excellent soundboard which is cool because they are very early performances and there’s a lot to dive into there. The next couple of discs are good audience tapes, the first being a bit towards the back of a medium sized club, but it’s not bad. Overall it’s an interesting collection, really allows you to contemplate the artists changes over time, with band members, and compositions. Good stuff!

  • Radio Broadcast 8.8 - A most welcome discovery!  Insanely cool hearing this band play live in the USA. The material is compelling, the band is tight and very convincing although they needed some work on their stage banter ha ha!  Very cool indeed! Epitaph Agora Cleveland, OH (WMMS-FM) 1973-10 01 Introduction 02 Fresh Air 03 Outside the Law 04 Big City 05 Early Morning 06 Reflexion 07 Stop Look and Listen 08 Who Do You Love
  • Audience 9.2 - Amazing atmosphere that the band completely catches and performs up to. The crowd is very responsive but does not intrude on the recording – even during clap-alongs which I normally hate but here is actually enhances the song!  Fantastic all the way around, and there’s plenty of headroom left in the recording so if you increase frequency (if you have an EQ) or volume you won’t destroy the integrity of the sound. So blast away!

  • Audience 7.7 - Distant and hissy, but Plant somehow can still be the loudest instrument in the building.

  • Audience 7.5 A famous show, billed as “Electric Magic”, the band put on a marathon concert which is contained on these three discs…in average quality. That’s it. Legendary gig, great performance, average recording. Listen to Since I’ve Been Loving You, it will give you chills. Collectors will need this…historically huge.

Moby Dick 03. Whole Lotta Love  
  • Audience 8.4 - Not a high fidelity recording, sounding almost like an AM radio broadcast, but it gets a good sound review because it’s got clear guitar and bass (some tape hiss) and vocals are very clear. When a new tape pops up from such an early vintage you always immediately suspect it will be muddy crap so it’s a pleasant surprise to hear that it is decent. I like this show too, it’s a regular tour stop but the band is out to prove a point – and that point is that Led Zeppelin is not the only great English heavy rock band touring the States. JETHRO TULL Delaware, Selby Stadium Delaware, Ohio, USA 28-May-1970 Disc One 101 -Stage Announcement - Tune Up 102 -Nothing Is Easy 103 -My God 104 -To Cry You A Song 105 -With You There To Help Me - By Kind Permission Of 106 -Sossity, You're A Woman - Reasons For Waiting Disc Two 201 -Dharma For One -Drum Solo 202 -We Used To Know - Guitar Solo 203 -For A Thousand Mothers Line-up: Ian Anderson: voice, guitar and flute Martin Barre: guitar Glenn Cornick: bass John Evan: keyboards Clive Bunker: drums  
  • Audience 9.3 - A brilliant, dynamic, and exciting recording that anyone could enjoy. I mean, this sounds like it could be officially released…not 100% perfect but I would not be as thrilled about it if it was perfect. I don’t need perfection, I need a good blend of excellent audio and nice atmosphere and this tape has that.

  • Audience 8.8 - At first my thought was that this was a recording for a broadcast because even though it sounds like an audience recording, that may just mean that the station used room mics to capture the concert. What tipped me off to the fact that this is indeed just a really good audience tape is the clapping near the mic after the songs.
