Notes

uncirculated master reel-to-reel tape

This Spirit show is below normal quality level. There was a 21 minute gap in the right channel. Because the taper's assistant didn't do his job properly, you sometimes only heard echo (the microphones became pointed backwards). He's talking, singing, being a pain in the ass... constantly. He is told to keep his mouth shut, over and over again.

When everything has been said and done about this show, one fact still remains. The performance is simply mindblowing. At an explosive, cosmic level that cannot be defined. This show might get you a little high without aid!

It isn't perfect, far from it. But, it is a stellar performance.
