NoteNice audience recording. Not the band's best show, but it's cool to hear them in such an intimate setting. Eddie's voice is a bit shaky at times, and there is an issue with the PA that causes the band to stop in the middle of Sometimes and resume it about 30 seconds later. The REAL problem, however, is Jack Irons... If you need proof that he's a shit drummer, it's all over this disc. Corduroy seriously lags, and it's definately the worst this anthem has ever sounded. The rest of the band seems to lose enthusiasm during the song because Jack's tempo is so lackluster. Plus, he totally blows it on Even Flow... you'll see... it's pretty damn bad. And State Of Love And Trust is pathetic. As for my copy, there are a few oddities. Firstly, all the songs are on one track, which isn't a big problem, but there are strange edits between songs that seem to indicate a corrected TAO. It still flows okay, considering, but it's definately not pristine. Also, there are a few skips built into my copy. Lastly, the taper seems to have relocated before Do The Evolution, because the show from that point on sounds different. I'm working on a replacement. For now, it's definately listenable if you're a completist, but I'm seeking a better copy, and you probably should too.
