Dick's ReviewThe vocals are pretty poorly recorded but the instrumental parts sound close to very good quality. This is a very representative show of their power and style in 1972. One would call this a high energy show and the Dark Star Jam is especially unique with Keith playing much in the forefront. I probably wouldn’t keep this tape because of the vocals but since I went to the 8/22 & 24/72 shows at the Berkeley Community Theater, I am grateful to have a sample of how mindblowing they sounded during this period of time.
