• Audience 8.5 - an interesting tape, sometimes flawed but quickly recovering. It’s an old tape after all, and I am glad someone dug it out of their shoebox and made it available. The stadium PA systems all have funny mixes sometimes, with how things are panned, etc. etc. and this one is no exception. I get more of the synthesizers and a very articulated bass which is actually very cool because normally Bill is just a rumble. ROLLING STONES ATLANTA,GA.

  • Soundboard 8.9 - An intimate performance for the university students. A warm recording, kind of sounds like it could be coming from your own living room, in the mix, his band is slightly muted in order to highlight Jackson’s acoustic guitar/vocals and I think it is by design.

  • Soundboard 9.1  - I am not sure if this was recorded for broadcast or not, it sure sounds like it may have been, I mean may have been broadcast as I hear some of the “FM compression” characteristics here…but it is a fine board tape nonetheless.

  • CD1 FM Broadcast 8.8 A little hiss present, and a little “compression” but a good tight sound nonetheless. The Miami 78 is Audience 8.3 With some big hall boom in the kick drum. CD 2 Audience 8.5 Thin in some places, but opens wider as it goes along. Taper possibly moves closer, and sound improves. CD 3 Audience 8.6 A loud, boisterous, beer soaked rock and roll affair with sound quality that I would describe as clear but missing some mid-band punch. It’s nice to have a chronological history sometimes, you get to hear a band just gain more and more confidence (not as if this band ever lacked any). This band’s sound and style really was custom made for these years but after that it dropped off the map. Too bad really, it’s a good time rock and roll music and transcends time.

  • Audience 8.8 - Back in the cassette tape trading days, many tapes would be passed around containing the Mick Taylor period and those were the ones I most gravitated towards. A lot of those shows I have never listened to again since the cassette days for fear they would still sound so weak…but this one has blown me away, literally. It is not the old multi-gen, hissy and muddy clusterphuck like so many of those audience recordings were, this one is really pretty friggin’ good. Not perfect, but VERY damn good.

  • Audience 8.7 - Every audience tape has a certain unique “timbre” to it, a quality hard to define – it encompasses distance from source, surrounding ambience, equalization, harmonics, and more. So, this recording is what I would call “very good” but different than other 88 Euro Zappa tapes in timbre. I find this one leaning too far in upper mid band and treble, not irritatingly, but wanted more bottom end. My ears were telling me that is what it wanted…yours may not it is all very subjective. It’s a good recording though. Frank Zappa 19880425 Copenhagen, Denmark Falkoner Theater Set 1: 01. Heavy Duty Judy 03:49 02. band introductions 02:04 03. Packard Goose > 07:41 04.

  • Audience 8.0 – 8.5 This is one of those “right in the thick of it” tapes. Immersed into the crowd, you become part of the experience of the concert along with the tapers themselves. Is that good or bad?  In this case it starts off a little shaky and gets better, and better, as the show progresses until at the end you realize you had a great time.

  • Audience 8.1 - In the pantheon of ’69 Stones audience tapes, this one ranks as one of the more listenable ones. The recorder levels are low, so some tape hiss comes up at volume, but it is relatively clear, no murkiness (which historically is a sound killer), and you actually distinguish very well the two distinct guitars (but still sometimes can’t tell where Taylor ends and Keith begins (which is kind of what they strove for anyway).

  • Audience 8.7 - A huge surprise this was to me, being the first gig with Jan Hammer in 1976 and at the Roundhouse, which was not known as being hospitable for taping (acoustics) but this tape is pretty good! The surprise of the year.

  • Audience 8.4 - A smooth recording, pretty stable, but does lack some punch therefore it is recommended to “season to taste”, but thankfully the pallet is there to lay on your coloring.  Some minor tape hiss pervades but is kind of background, my hunch is that this tape went through some mastering process to add boost and it helps a lot. It’s a good tape and a great show! The playing is top shelf by everyone, backing band is sharp and help to allow all the guitar pyrotechnics. 26th October – 21st December 1981: ALVIN LEE BAND - European & US Tour.

  • FM Broadcast 9.3 and Audience 7.8 - The FM tape is very good but the Tokyo show is suffering from what seems to be too low recording levels meaning once you turn the volume up the tape hiss comes along with it. When you do turn it up, you at least hear the band playing and pretty much get a good idea of everything but there is some hiss to deal with.

  • Audience 9.1 - This recording is very very clean, and there is a ton of headroom where literally you can turn the volume all the way up and still get a very clean sound. There almost needs to be more mid punch, and at times, probably in sections that have been patched with a different source, there is a noticeable increase in volume/mid band. This could also be something with the taper, I do not know. Either way this recording is pretty damn good. Frank Zappa 1988-04-29 Helsinki, Finland Jäähalli Set 1: 01. tuning 00:50 02.

  • Audience 9.6 - Hallelujah! This is just sublime, you get not only a band that sounds completely in lock step with each other (and I mean where even the improvs sound fluid and effortless), but also Frank being on top of his game. His tone, his attack, his feedback, his sound on the tape it’s just a really exceptional capture and performance to elevate this tape to MUST HAVE status. The 88 tour had its share of sleepers, but this is not one of those, by all standards this has to be considered one of the best nights.

  • Audience 8.5 - Despite being a clean recording (probably from a master), this is captured from possibly middle of venue meaning it does sound a little distant (vocals are the giveaway). At times, it sounds like the tapers try to adjust their position and the sound gets fuller, although the music is still kind of blended together and you don’t get distinct guitar notes, even though you get the overall impact of guitar – now solos are a different thing, because those seem to soar above it all and are actually much clearer and more present in the mix.

  • Audience 8.6 - A lively and loud tape, with great atmosphere, in that you get the hall acoustics without unnecessary boominess or echo, just the right amount to give you that sense of being there. That makes for a unique listening experience because this show does not sound like the next show or the one before, the playing and arrangements are going to be different but so is the venue and acoustics. As long as the recording is good, and this one is pretty darn good, you will enjoy the show.

  • Audience 8.4 - The Roundhouse in London was not the ideal place to make a stealth recording, and this one barely wins the struggle between room and distance to present a surprising, clear picture of a very early Dire Straits show. Songs “Me And My Friends” and “Real Girl” would be dropped from the set soon after this show, so having a tape like this should be considered important to the collector. Dire Straits: Roundhouse, London, England, 1978-01-29 Opening act for Talking Heads! 01 Southbound Again 02 Six-Blade Knife 03 Eastbound Train 04 Down To The Waterline 05 In The Gallery 06 Water Of Love 07 Setting Me Up 08 Real Girl 09 Me And My Friends 10 Sultans Of Swing 11 Wild West End (Real Girl and Me And My Friends are rare, unreleased, non-album songs!)
  • Studio Quality 8.8 - Some tape hiss present, but the quality is there, makes for an interesting listen to hear a pre-final production version of these songs. When the gloss is removed it sounds like it could have been recorded in the mid ‘70’s.

  • Audience 9.4 - This to me is what keeps me in the game. When I thought I had every 79 show (my favorite period) and this comes along…and….it…smokes…everything! Maybe not a perfect score in the audio dept. which by the way it is excellent (a little pegging of the meters when the band is in full on rage but it’s minor, a minor issue) but it delivers in just about every possible way. Frank’s playing is off the charts and his tone is evil. He sounds relaxed, and satisfied – all is going well. Maybe he forgot about this gig a day or two later, but I can’t get the CD out of my player (and not because it is stuck!). This just rules. Period.

  • Soundboard 8.8 - The mix gets a little cluttered up at times, guitars being rather hot in this mix but I guess that is what you would prefer. The first disc is all BB King, the second disc is when Eric comes on to join for the remainder of the set. Eric Clapton with B.B. King 1979-04-19, Atlanta, Georgia [SBD] Atlanta, Georgia April 19, 1979 Soundboard Disc 1: Caledonia Sweet Little Angel Jam Don't Answer the Door You're Mean Why I Sing the Blues Outside Help Made Your Move Too Soon Disc 2: I'm Not Me Without You Thrill is Gone Hold On (*) unknown (*) Jam 1 (*) Jam 2 (*) Comments: (*) with Eric Clapton and Diana Ross.
  • Soundboard 8.9 - This is not the same Clapton of the ’74 comeback tour, this is much more cohesive, much better playing.

  • FM Broadcast 8.8 - Decent if a little compressed, but it’s from a period that I don’t see a whole lot of recordings from.

  • Audience 8.2 - The selling point here are the rarely played songs, including Overnight Bag which I don’t think I have even heard ever played live before. RORY GALLAGHER Chateau Neuf, Oslo, Norway, October 29, 1978 CD 1:

  • Audience 8.3 - I find these early club dates fascinating. It sounds closer to Taste than anything he was doing on subsequent tours. The guitar work is more off the cuff, edgier maybe. This recording features a pretty clear and up-front guitar, with vocals next and kick drum following. It’s good, a little hiss present, but to have tapes like this to hear the early period Rory post-Taste is most welcome.
