Excellent quality throughout with only disc 1 being less than ideal due to the rarity of the tape and early vintage, and that is because you are comparing it to the rest of this set which is all soundboard. The canister cover might appear in the photos as though Rory’s face is all washed out but that is just how the flash affected it.
