::: WONDERFUL AUD for its vintage.
::: Warts: Some mike noises (fixed or lowered). Dullspots & dropouts fixed but surely missed a few (weren't many, tape was in EXC shape). Tapeflip splice in "Dharma" (on master).
::: Tull played 1970-04-30to05-03 at this venue with Fairport Convention & Salt 'N Pepper. Clouds were advertised but didn't perform(?). On 1970-05-03 Boz Scaggs replaced Fairport. Lights by Little Princess.
::: Poster is Bill Graham BG #231 & is around online.
::: COMPARISON CLAUSE: From a 1st gen transfer done in 1974 or 1975. My source gave me a number of his cassettes after transfering them to reels. Either this tape held up better than the master, or the master was not properly azimuth adjusted for playback (or the playback deck had some issues), as this transfer sounds significantly better, clearer & has more high end intact than the KRW_CO "MASTER>DAT" version. This copy has the opening audience noise start up slightly earlier at the beginning of the show as well as a couple more seconds at the very end. The original master had a tapeflip near the start of "Dharma". The "MASTER>DAT" version spliced out about 25 seconds of the start of side B & someone did a virtually unnoticeable (nice!) splice to bring the song together. That extra deleted (blistering guitar) material is left here in this version - but you will hear the rather abrupt tapeflip splice. Completists will be happy, the general listeners more startled... But, in general, everyone should be pleased with the overall sonic upgrade.
