J-Card Comment Reviews:

"The sound quality is great, but the vocals are unfortunately not very
up-front. The performances are uneven, but generally this is a
rewarding disk. It was recorded at a time when Bob renewed his
interest in playing electric guitar, so this disk is full of extensive
jams, which you may or may not like. The highlight is a wonderful
performance of "Simple Twist of Fate"."

" This disc was produced within a few weeks of the show and is in
superb quality.This set of shows was notable for dylans acoustic
guitar doodling which I love .A wonderful Pretty Peggy oh and a
fantastic I and I really steal the show for me.I was there and
this disc sounds like it sounded."

" I consider this in the top five of all time great recordings of Bob.
The thump of WW's drums to the whine of JJ's pedal all are as clear as
one could possibly imagine. A soundboard would not come close to this
recording for its warmth and live sound. It really is as good (almost)
as being there. The Peggy O on here I have not heard topped, though a
close second to the version on Christiania as filler from 1996. Even
though Bob is wearing his pinched voice of '93, this one is among the
holy grail recordings. The sound on this surpasses that heard on Hard
Times In Alabama, although 'bama provides the better total performance. Apollo Landing's a gem folks."

" this is the complete feb 8 1993 hammersmith
apollo concert with a bonus of 3 trks from feb 7 1993
hammersmith apollo performance. whenever bob plays london
he always seems to give a little more. this is a wonderful
dylan concert i loved peggy o,tomorrow night,jim jones and
simple twist of fate. this concert rates **** out of *****"

" this was a great show & i was there. at a record fair i met a
stallholder who said 'i taped that'when i picked up the disc.
i ought to have kissed him, as this is one of the best. don't
know how anybody can say that the vocals are subdued - listen to
jim jones. just a fantastic thing. quite easy to find, buy it."
