Naturally, I'm hoping that this new version adds enough to warrant yet another version. First of all, this version is not derived from any other bootleg: there is no vinyl in the lineage of this recording. It's only a couple of (well-preserved) analog generations removed from the original FM broadcast. The sound is pretty good, in my humble opinion. Secondly, I haven't heard every version of "Playing the Foole," but most of them seem to lack "Cogs In Cogs." It appears here, but it fades in, and I'm not sure how much (if any) is missing. Also, Gentle Giant's original station ID for KMET is included here! I've never heard this elsewhere, and it is an absolute must for Giant fans (even if it is only 14 or so seconds). One minor flaw is that Mister Class And Quality? ends with a bit of a whimper. I think that one of KMET's boss jocks jumped in with some inane prattle right on the end of the song, and it was difficult to get a clean ending on tape. Other bootleg versions of "Playing The Foole" have a bit cleaner ending. I obtained some information on the performance from Jack Skelly's superb "Gentle Giant Tour History" page. It's great!
