taper's notes:
(from barndoggs master tape, uncirculated for 30+ years.)
there are a few problems with this tape.
I was sitting in a front aisle seat, and you can hear
alot of talking in the 1st song. the people next to me
were real pissed because people were standing in the aisle
and wouldn't sit down. security soon remedied that.
From don't be denied on there are some speed problems in
the recording, I think due to a faulty tape, since the
batteries were new.
remasterer's notes:
most of this recording sounds pretty consistent, but it
goes south (further south than in "southern man") starting with
don't be denied. the last two songs don't sound too bad, but
tracks 14 and 15 have some variation, and the worst of it is
in southern man.
the folks in Lynyrd Skynyrd might be glad about that.
they didn't like that one much.
the last two songs may be a little slow, but this could use
a speed fix. I was thinking about giving it a try, then decided
why mess it up for everybody else even more than it already is?
this is basically the "raw files" posting of this show.
It's not as bad as I feared it might be, and most of it sounds okay.
none of it sounds wonderful. this is a 1973 Neil Young audience
recording at the Boston Garden, recorded on a primitive portable
Sonic Panic? recorder and microphone. so don't expect it to sound
like it was recorded on a Nakamichi recorder. But it is pretty good
for what it is, and it is from a master cassette > CD source.
so there is no tape copy lineage of any kind here, no noise reduction,
EQ or shoddy (or otherwise) attempt to fix the speed problem.
this appears to be the whole concert.
thanks very much to "barndoggs" for recording this Neil show
and sharing it with me to share with all of you.
This one is even older than Neil's jeans worn on current tours.
so some of it is mellow, some of it rocks, and all of it's good old Neil.
almost good enough to put this in with "classic" rock.
there is another less complete source of this show circulating,
but this is likely the first circulation of this recording.
