Audience 8.2 - Well, it isn’t a recording that will win any grammies but damn if it isn’t RAW just like the band and their music. This recording actually suits this band – it’s a little rough, but it’s brutal and in your face. The vocals fight for bandwidth against angry and loud guitars, driving bass, and furious non-stop drums. It’s actually kind of a fun listen despite its limitations. Oh, and some good news – it is not a muddy mess at all, it’s just a loud band in a small club sounding for all the world like the debut of punk rock.

Audience 8.9 - It’s amazing how tapes still pop up after so many years and sound like they were recorded yesterday. This is one such tape. The music also holds up, and since I never saw Elton John live I am still impressed with how much the guitar factors in to this show.  I enjoyed this performance and I felt the excitement of the crowd and felt totally transported which is the hallmark of a well-done recording. Elton John Convention Center Anaheim, CA November 2, 1980 01 -Funeral For A Friend - Love Lies Bleeding 02 -Tiny Dancer 03 -Goodbye Yellow Brick Road 04 -All The Young Girls Love Alice 05 -Rocket Man 06 -Philadelphia Freedom 07 -Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word 08 -Saturday Night 09 -All I Want Is You Disc 2 10 -Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting 11 -Harmony 12 -Little Jeannie 13 -Bennie And The Jets 14 -Imagine 15 -Ego 16 -Have Mercy On The Criminal 17 -Someone Saved My Life Tonight 18 -Bite Your Lip (Get Up And Dance) 19 -Great Balls Of Fire 20 -Good Golly Miss Molly 21 -I Saw Her Standing There

Audience 8.2 - Not one of the better ones, it lacks clarity (drums are actually pretty clear though, and the vocals do rise above somewhat) and to these ears, I gotta say, this is the closest I have ever heard Boston sounding like a heavy metal concert. The lack of sonic clarity does not mean you can’t tell they were f’ing loud! Boston Wings Stadium, Kalamazoo, MI December 12, 1976 01 Intro 02 Rock-n-Roll Band 03 Shattered Images 04 More Than A Feeling 05 Peace of Mind 06 Something About You 07 Man I'll Never Be 08 Smokin' - Foreplay Band line-up Brad Delp - lead vocals, guitar (died March 9, 2007, aged 56) Sib Hashian - drums, backing vocals (died March 22, 2017, aged 67) Tom Scholz - guitars, organ Barry Goudreau - guitars Fran Sheehan - bass, backing vocals

Disc 1 Audience 8.7 - Surprisingly decent effort capturing a rarely recorded Borneo Band in what sounds like a small club. Disc 2 Soundboard 8.7 - A tape showing age, but of decent enough quality that you can dive in and enjoy this rare recording. Discs 3 and 4 Audience 9.2 - Extremely clear and vibrant recording that provides an amazing listening experience!  This is a must have for sure.

Soundboard 8.8 - OK, so yeah this board tape is extremely clear but it suffers from the sterility of most board tapes, and when the band is ACDC, you really need that electric atmosphere a rowdy audience provides. I also found this tape kind of missing some “guts”, but, if you want to hear everything, all guitars and drums, vocals (including backing vocals), then you can’t miss with a clean board tape that allows everything to be present.

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.

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!).
