OU: Since there seem to be some interest in America, I have resurrected this master I hadn't listened for 20 years! I have just a few recalls of this show: the audience was quiet and the acoustic of the venue awful (actually it was a tent). It was the time where my recording device was not top level. I had been taping shows for over a year back then. I had a Sony Compact Recorder linked to a Philips microphone which was huge. The only advantage of it was that you could split right and left microhone and keep them distant for a decent stereo sound. What I do remember was that the wire was a bit faulty, so in a couple of occasions, during the first couple of songs one of the channel couldn't be heard. In editing this show, I have copy and pasted the good channel into the missing one, so there's no lack of sound. You won't notice it, anyway. I have also re-equalised the whole thing and worked on the overall volume. The sound is improved, although not really the best. I would rate it 6 out of 10. If you are an America fan, you might be very interested since my master has never been into circulation before.
There are a couple of tracks I did not recognize, so any help will be much appreciated.
Dave's note: If the crowd WAS quiet in the tent they WERE NOT quiet outside. It sounds like a lunatic's house sometimes.
