Admittedly this is not the most exciting Purple Chick release – there’s nothing much new here, and you’ve heard it all before. Nevertheless, this set does compile the various Hollywood Bowl mixes and edits in one place. However, these two discs don’t include the unedited recordings – we’ll save these for a Purple Chick live compendium (if we ever get around to that).

Instead, disc one presents the 1977 LP mix (with a 1996 mix edited in at the side flip for maximum continuity) while disc two presents vintage mixes and edits of the 1964 (mono) and 1965 (stereo) shows. [OK, 1965 might not be a vintage mix, but it’s a different mix/edit from somewhere.]

Don’t let the “Hollywood Bowl Complete” source designation fool you – these are not straight copies of the Yellow Dog release. That CD, especially the 1964 show, sounds rather flat, so we used our proprietary equalization process (first introduced to create the “Revolution” composites on The Beatles Deluxe vol. 6) to make these tapes sound exactly like the vibrant released version. We think it’s a nice improvement.

As always, Purple Chick discs are fan created and NEVER FOR SALE.
