• Soundboard 9.2 - A lot of free form jamming here, what they call Mountain Jam is really made up of some improvisation before the band goes off into this more structured jam, and the show is a little condensed but sounds like it is much longer than it actually is.

  • 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!

  • FM Broadcast 8.8 - A tape that sounds…1978. That doesn’t mean it’s bad at all, it’s just a rather dated sounding broadcast to my ears. That means it kind of captures the time period rather well, and the quality itself is pretty good, but not exhibiting the usual dynamic of an FM broadcast. Not enough 1978 era tapes of excellent quality though, so grab this one.

  • Soundboard  9.0 - A mix that captures the band firing on all cylinders, certainly you have to say that Alice Cooper had total command of performance throughout his career and if you worried that his drinking might affect him onstage, well listen to these early shows. I hear no signs of inebriation. In fact this is extremely tight and strong performance wise.

  • Audience 8.8 - This rates highly as a new audio tape discovery from decades ago you might have low expectations but it’s a good, clear (but for Alice being a little low in the mix) and I would say powerful show in sound and performance.

  • Audience 8.7 - A tape that finds balance even with the somewhat squashed sound, because it is pretty clear regardless. Fills a lot of gaps in my Alice Cooper collection as these Lace And Whiskey tour shows seem few and far between compared to other tours.
  • Pro  9.0 - This recording is great for the time period but it seems that it has been remastered to remove what was probably a great deal of hiss. There’s some left here, but I gotta say this is still one hell of a nice recording.  
  • Audience  8.3 - A great effort by the taper to capture and preserve a rock concert in his hometown with what sounds like pretty good gear. The levels are a touch low, but the fact that everything is pretty clear and there’s no distortion at all, well I tip my hat to this guy! A good one.  
  • Pro Soundboard  9.8 - One of the best ever. Must get it.

  • Studio Quality 8.9 - The quality is great but you have to get past the first song and a half as there is some static present. Once you move past those tracks you get some very interesting studio rehearsals and outtakes. I love the rawness here, it’s very visceral and powerful.

  • Audience  7.3 - A rip-roaring, over the top onslaught of greasy rock and roll captured painfully close to the PA. Sounds like this may be lifted from vinyl, and there’s tape noise artifacts present. But, all that taken into account, this is still a very good time and not painful on the ears despite the volume (I think someone attempted to remaster this but it can use one more time).

  • Soundboard  8.9 - It’s a very clean, good board but it features a heavy reverb sound, but it’s probably natural reverb. Still an interesting kind of atmospheric recording.  
  • Audience 8.6 -A sonic blast not held back by some of the typical limitations such as the actual venue itself which is notorious for sounding more like a gymnasium than a concert hall. Tape cannot be faulted for being muddy, it’s not very clean, but that is due to proximity to PA and unprofessional gear. That being said, the tape scores high in terms of sheer electricity and fun…once your ears adjust, yeah, but what a ride!  Band did not know they were being taped by someone so I guess this is a pretty honest performance. They sound very primitive, underground, gritty…and I guess that is why Cooper made changes because perhaps that style and sound was getting outdated on such a large caliber tour. Personally, I much prefer this honest, maybe if a bit more crude, band sound.

  • Soundboard  8.7 - It’s fine just sounds a little dated to me, all the instruments are present which is cool since a lot of times Glenn’s guitar is mixed low or struggles to be heard.  
  • Soundboard  9.7 - Sparkling, immaculate, totally pro mix and sound.  
  • Pro Radio Broadcast  9.2 - Sounds very much like a product of its time, and, it is rather good and Aldo shreds convincingly.  
  • 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!  
  • 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.

  • Studio Quality  9.5 - Demo Sessions from "No Parole From Alcatrazz ".  
  • 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.  
  • 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  9.7 - Superb in every detail.  
  • 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.

  • 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.  
  • CD 1 - Audience  9.6 CD 2 - Audience  8.8 CD 3 - Audience  8.9 Hot crisp and sweet recording.  
  • 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.

  • Pro  9.0 - Both are excellent, bright, snappy recordings. Goes without saying if you don’t have this you should get it!  
  • Soundboard  9.3 - One of the absolute best of the early Aerosmith recordings. Brilliant!  
  • Audience  7.5 - Vocals are very up front, overall it’s clear but music is not “full” sounds a little behind in the mix. Add mid band compression and this one would smoke.    
  • Audience 8.6 - This recording does not possess great dynamic range, but it is nice and clear and features some biting guitar and thankfully present vocals. It’s a good ’76 tape and worthy of the collection for sure. Aerosmith Cow Palace San Francisco, CA August 28, 1976 1 -Rats In The Cellar 2 -Dream On 3 -Lord of the Thighs 4 -Last Child 5 -Walk This Way 6 -Sick As A Dog 7 -Same Old Song and Dance 8 -Train Kept A Rollin' 9 -Toys In The Attic
  • Audience 8.5 - A fun recording to listen to, the quality is decent enough to where you can really dive in and not get fatigued at all…because let me tell you these guys really rocked out at this gig. If they were coked to the gills or drunk or whatever, I mean, I just don’t hear that. I hear a good hard rockin’ band! Band: Aerosmith Title: Reading Festival Date: August 27, 1977 Venue: Reading Festival, Reading, England 1 -Mama Kin 2 -S.O.S. (Too Bad) 3 -Big Ten Inch Record 4 -Lord Of The Thighs 5 -Lick And A Promise 6 -Dream On 7 -Walk This Way 8 -Draw The Line 9 -Same Old Song And Dance
  • Audience 8.7 - This show features the return to the Spectrum, a venue they had recently played and for some reason decided that they needed to schedule another show there (perhaps they felt the last show there was below par?). Anyway, by all accounts it’s a better gig, and the audio quality is also better with clearer sound and better separation of instruments. The recording levels are a touch low, so you will have to turn up the volume (trust me it won’t distort or break up, it will get even better). Aerosmith The Spectrum Philadelphia PA December 19, 1977   -Back In The Saddle -S.O.S. (Too Bad) -Big Ten Inch Record -I Wanna Know Why -Lord Of The Thighs -Lick And A Promise -Get It Up -Walk This Way -Sweet Emotion -Dream On -Walkin' The Dog -Mama Kin -Draw The Line -Same Old Song And Dance -Train Kept A Rollin' -Milk Cow Blues -Toys In the Attic Back at the Spectrum about 10 weeks after the previous gig. Sounds like someone handed Joe Perry the wrong guitar heading onto  stage because he is way out of tune! He tries to tune on the fly, but sounds like he is given another guitar and things improve.  A weird start to a show! The band cranks through its classics at this point, an entertaining show to these ears. Good quality for a 1977 gig, straight from the taper. Enjoy!
  • Audience 8.2 - A scrappy document, immersed in the audience, band playing a large hall…but thankfully I can hear everything. Not much clarity when they are at full swing but I would say this tape still has its charms and collectors, if they don’t have it, may want to add it to the collection. Incidentally the band returned again to play Philly later the same year, and that show exists and is pretty decent sounding. Aerosmith The Spectrum Philadelphia PA October 9, 1977 -Back In The Saddle -S.O.S. (Too Bad) -Big Ten Inch Record -I Wanna Know Why -Lord Of The Thighs -Lick And A Promise -Get It Up -Walk This Way -Sweet Emotion -Dream On -Dream on cont'd -Walkin' The Dog -Sick As A Dog -Draw The Line -Same Old Song And Dance -Train Kept A Rollin' -Get The Lead Out Notes: The band out on their "Draw The Line" tour playing new tunes before the record was out! Ah the old days! Band debuts "Get It Up" here, a whip-cracker of a tune...In fact that whole Draw The Line album rocks. People slag on it, but that "first side" is pure rock and roll genius, just has a flow and the rest is good too. If that LP came out today, people would shit their pants in joy. But I digress...this show is from the taper and solid quality. This is the show where Tyler and Perry got hit with an M-80 as they returned for the encore, so alas, there is no encore. But we also do not hear any fireworks blast as the tape simply shuts off after the Train Kept A Rollin'/Get The Lead Out jam. The band would return to the same venue just weeks later.
  • Philadelphia 1983 Audience 8.8 - This tape is very “live” sounding, especially the drums which seem to cascade around your head with Tyler being just slightly above the fray although the enunciation is not that great. Guitars are somewhat in back of things, so really on this tape it’s Tyler and Kramer leading the way in the mix. The good thing about this tape is that it is sharp and clear, the separation of instruments is not so much but at least it’s not muddy. I think Tyler is performing as well as he was capable…take it for what it’s worth but he’s good on this night. Ventura 1983 Audience 9.0 - A really good tape that captures quite the disaster of a gig…poor o’l Steven Tyler – lost his stage mate and now has to carry the weight on his own and man…slow motion train wreck on this night. I think this show is the musical equivalent of rubbernecking ‘cause you just can’t turn away you are drawn like a moth to the flame to hear Tyler royally butcher a rock and roll show.
