Sound:

A really nice recording of an excellent performance from one of the band's earliest know shows in the US. Sound quality is very good, slightly distant but clear, with some occasional distortion. Good balance of instruments with the drums lowest in the mix, the audience is not loud and as I guess Sabbath were pretty new to them at the time.

- t3 "War Pigs" is cut at 2:33 with about a minute missing, it takes about a minute for the sound to re-establish itself afterwards
- t7 "Fairies Wear Boots" is cut at 3:31 with less than a minute missing, the sound quality drops but re-establishes itself quickly afterwards
