Audience 7.6 - Guitar cuts through quite well on this one. DVD is pro shot from French TV 1970 and features the original band members. DVD is a real treat. -
Audience 8.8 - Quite an amazing find! A very rare and previously uncirculated show that sounds very clean and close, and it’s the original line-up! I have to categorize this as a must have. -
Audience 6.9–7.2 - Tries to get better, sometimes it does. It’s a genuine 1969 audience tape for sure, but at least I can actually hear the band, and like I said at times this rises up to maybe a 7.2. -
Audience 9.7 - This was broadcast live at the time but I can tell you it is not a soundboard. There is too much ambience (a small club apparently) that gives you the impression they did not even need to run a board feed for this broadcast. It’s superbly captured, the detail, the depth, man…this is how they should record all concerts! Amazing stuff.

Soundboard 8.5 - It’s really hard to tell but I think it’s a board because of the way the sound is mixed. Vocals are way up front, and then they get pushed a little back, and there’s a lack of surrounding noise. There is some tape noise present. The audience noise you do hear sounds like it is picked up from one of the stage mics. -
Audience 8.1 - Not that bad, but vocals a little back, and some tape distortion in the mid band somewhere that does not bother but it is there lurking. The Mellotron adds a nice sweeping atmosphere.

Audience 9.1 - This show is divided into two sets, with both sounding similar but the 1st set is just a touch rougher in the sense that I hear a tiny bit of channel overload (not distorted!) and less clarity (but not harmfully so) than the 2nd set. Overall, both are very well recorded and I would imagine set 2 was broadcast as this was typical around this time and other Rosyln, NY. “My Father’s Place” shows were indeed broadcast on local FM radio. So, while it seems Set 2 is the better audio (fractionally), I would say it was recorded for broadcast and this is the pre-broadcast tape recorded from the audience with open mics…yes? No? Maybe so? I have no idea…it’s really good but not radio station broadcast good so maybe this show was never recorded for broadcast at all.

FM Radio Broadcast 8.8 -
Multiple sources used to make up this first volume of the 70’s series. * The first is a really cool 1967 show that is professionally recorded in an amateur fashion. So, yes, a pro recording but whoever engineered it was slow on the uptake, levels are peaked, the mix is funky, oh well, it could have been much better but for a super early Spirit show this is PURE GOLD and the surprise is how jazzy they are here. * The second disc comes from another early gig (1969) from Seattle and is Audience 8.3 for the clarity but has some hiss, and is not exactly hi-fi but you can hear everything very nicely and clear, pretty much, maybe vocals are a little buried but that is all. * Disc 3 is the continuation of the previous plus begins the Chicago 1975 gig (Disc 4) which is Soundboard 8.8 and has lovely atmosphere, and I think it is in stereo, or at least the way it is panned, mimics a stereo effect. -

Radio Broadcast 9.5 - Sparkling! This is THE one to have in my opinion – the sound is really good and very vibrant. One can truly appreciate what made this band so special, despite their lack of commercial success (as it that is a measure of talent anyway).Spooky Tooth Neue Welt Berlin, Germany October 22, 1970 01 Something To Say 5:48 02 I Am The Walrus 6:52 03 The Wrong Time 4:35 04 I Wanna Be Free 3:21 05 Son Of Your Father 5:01 06 Better By You, Better Than Me 4:23 07 Leave The Kids Alone 5:22 08 Soulful Lady 9:18 Mike Harrison - keyboards, vocals Luther Grosvenor - guitar John Hawken - keyboards, vocals Steve Thompson - bass Mike Kellie - drums

Radio Broadcast 8.7 - The organ sounds killer on this. Vocals up front, mixed for radio. -
Soundboard 9.4 - FM broadcast very high quality, low generation. -
Austin rural rock that had built up a good following and had incredible promise but for some reason their first recorded album never got picked up by anyone and remained shelved. As far as I know, this CD is the only way to hear this lost album, it's so obscure not even the track names are known. The band did change their name eventually and recorded another album which I know very little about. -
Unsure of year of original release but this is a CD reissue on the Acid Symposium Records. CD is new, never played. -

Audience 8.7 - A higher rating would be possible if there were some more bottom end on this one, but it is very clear and bright and just perfect for a remastering project. If you love Yes, go for this one. -

Audience 8.6 to 9.3 - From different sources and a great collection! -
Audience 8.4 - Pretty loud and intense recording, sounds close to the stage. -
Soundboard 9.0 - For those who want to know what Bruce Springsteen was about before he went all FM friendly singer songwriter, look no further than this hard and heavy hard rock jam fest from 1971. I do not like Bruce, I think he’s kind of a big douche, but damn you have to give him props because he is a rock and roll survivor and this early stuff smokes. -
Audience 8.5 - Slightly low recording levels meaning go ahead and turn up the volume on this one, and thankfully there’s no distortion. Recording is clear, not overly dynamic (it is metal after all) but you’ll probably enjoy this immensely if you understand that it’s really about the lyrics and the stage banter. Always fun, and it’s two discs so you get a lot of songs! -
Soundboard 9.2 - Another fun show with the boys. Come on, really if you can’t get into this you just need to drink a couple of beers and relax, maybe smoke a doob or something. -

Audience 8.8 - Very nice live sound, slamming kick drums, great vocals, guitars slightly more behind but overall a lovely recording and the best of this tour so far. -
Audience 9.0 - A very clear and atmospheric recording, no stage banter is lost, in fact this is pretty much in your face presence all the way. Good stuff! -
Audience 9.6 - Unbelievably clean and clear, could be released officially it’s that good! -
Audience 8.7 - A rare tape of the 1974 tour, you gotta grab these whenever they appear because unfortunately there are precious few. This one does not disappoint in the quality dept. despite being pretty friggin’ loud and close to taper…almost crosses over the line pegging the meters into distortion but it doesn’t…it would have been a total loss if it had.
