Notes sbd - The TC review was right on for this one. First off, sound quality will perturb many - hissy with a muddy, sounds like listening through a telephone recording, though the mix is good. Really missing on the high end. Also some munged sections (Samson). Keith seems to be trying but set 1 plods along except for the Crazy Fingers which is long and jammed. set 2 looks promising and teh Slip/Franklin's is good. Eyes > Samson up next is another couplet that is average. The Dancin' > Rat > TOO > Dew gets better as it goes along, with the Dew being the show highlight and first since the hiatus. TOO has some ok spacey jamming but is rather short, Rat is solid, Dancin' a bit repetitive. Given the poor quality of the sound and the lackluster performance delegates this to the bottom bucket of 76. You might want to listen to the Dew (though its an aud).
