Sound:

One for the Jimmy fanatics out there. Page's guitar is very loud, clear and upfront in the mix with the rest of the band behind to varying degrees. Plant is especially lost in the mix but he does come through at some points. My guess is that this was recorded from the stage, very close to Page's amp, as the audience also sound fairly distant.

A great performance from Page, but hard to tell what any of the others are doing! Although, from what we can hear, I think it's safe to assume that this is up there with the other two Boston performances that we have. Jones plays organ on "You Shook Me" for the first time on record. All circulating copies have a cut-and-paste job at the end of How Many More Times before it cuts.

- d2t1, "White Summer/Black Mountain Side" cut at 2:38
- d2t4, "How Many More Times" cuts before the end

dadgad:
Verified transfer from 2nd Gen cassette. A bit overloaded and crunchy especially the first half. Better than any bootleg release so far to my ears.
