Great recording of this excellent documentary (one of the best, most warm-hearted documentaries about Syd I think I've heard) featuring interviews with Nick, Rick, Dave, Pete Jenner and Andrew King as well as Rosemary Breen, Syd's sister. Completely lossless lineage. Enjoy.

thx! did the 48 hour premium account with RS over the weekend and completely binged on Quality Boots...think I got about 22 GB or so of some great stuff.

I dont know where to start...that Jeff Beck Exhaust Note thing looks nice...same with the Clapton/Knopfler/Collins. Maybe I will listen to some Nirvana or Pearl Jam...then again, some of those AC/DC shows with Bon Scott gotta be dope.

Maybe Pink Floyd, The Kinks or The Doors?

dude, you rock, thanks again.

By the way, I know you have heard this before and I know that it seems hard to come by but any Allman Brothers you might come across would be nice...those guys put on one helluva show.

still searching for Allman...

yeah, I am ashamed to say I had no idea what a treat Allman Bros. live were until I came across the Final Fillmore East show from '71.

Of course thats not actually a boot but an official release....

such a sad state of affairs, no matter how many times i hear about it. whatever you may think of their output after 1967 they'll always have my respect for making sure he received his royalties until the day he passed, protecting him as best they can from the media, and for continuing to speak of him affectionately. cheers for the share! thanks.
