Notes:
"Backdoor Angels" is just one title of various bootlegs of this show, which is also known as "Days Of Giving", "Bricks On The Road" or "Los Angeles 1976". There are some differences in the cutting of the tracks and most of the track listings on the covers are incorrect for many versions and none of them are cleaned up like this one. This version was taken from the "Backdoor Angels" version and I made some edits to the audio - 1) balanced the left/right channels; 2) boosted the overall sound levels about 2dbs; 3) fixed at least 15 drops/clicks/dead silence spots; and 4) properly tracked the tunes. There is no gap between CD1 and CD2 (ie. no fade). The track listing is correct now was well. This is a minor to moderate upgrade but an upgrade none the less. If you like shows properly tracked and all the annoyances gone, then get it, its worth it. I re-titled it only slightly to differentiate it. None of the other versions are on the DIME tracker right now. I included the artwork I got with it and it might be partially useful. I wish I had the talent to fix the art as well but alas, someone else might like to take a stab at that.
Thanks for sharing this concert. Magnificent and from their best period, IMHO. Quality recording 9/10 to my standards.
