This was bought from a bootleg dealer and is a great performance from the Ziggy Stardust and Mainman management days. A great setlist from Bowies 1970 - 1973's albums. A standout being the wonderful rendition of 'The width of a circle'. The only downside to this show is that it is an average to poor audience tape of the time. Probably done on a cheaper cassette recorder, there is virtually no bass nor decent clarity to the drums to hear but the guitar and vocals cut through. There is also, unfortunately, a layer of hiss sitting on top of it - but a detail that someone who likes a good remastering project could attend to. Personally, I enjoy this show and have always liked the Spiders/Ronson band so would recommend it to those of you who like this era of Bowie. It must have been an incredible concert to have gone to - just a pity we don't have a better quality recording of it. If anyone has a lower gen version of this please upload!
Enjoy.
