i went ahead and downloaded this concert, despite what others have said about it.

it’s not as bad as they have made it out to be.

With the exception of Improv #2, which is horribly scattered and leads absolutely nowhere [it sounds as though they aren’t listening to each other at all], the mix isn’t all that bad, and the rest of the tracks are your usual standard fare for concerts in June 1974.  I was hoping that the improv, at some 8 and a half minutes long, would have some redeeming value, but.....it doesn’t.

one request: the next one for release should be the concert from the Shrine Auditorium June 19th, 1974....ok?....the improv on that one brings tears to my eyes, but i have a bad quality/incomplete recording......thank you.
