Dick's ReviewThe quality is barely tolerable but it is worth keeping because of the incredible performance. The vocals are the worse but the instrumental parts actually sound quite decent in quality, specially for the more exciting tunes on this date. But the overall quality fades from very good to poor and the whole show is pretty hard to listen to. This a definitely very high energy and fast paced or tempo concert and will always be on my list of tapes that I want an excellent copy of. The Bird Song is pretty close to the best version I’ve heard on tape. It was probably the last time they ever did It’s All Over Now Baby Blue and also the last performance that I know of where they did the old anthem intro to The Other One. This shows also likely the first performance where they did the 3 tune medley that opened the 2nd set.
