No EQ'ing.

Dan Lampinski recorded over 100 concerts in the Providence/Boston area, mostly between 1974 and 1978. His earliest recordings were made with an internal microphone deck, and though they are somewhat lo-fi compared to his later work, some very great moments in rock history were captured for posterity. In late 1974 he bought a Sony TC-152SD tape recorder, a Sony ECM-99 stereo microphone, and began using Maxell cassettes. He was also fortunate enough to have a friend who provided excellent taping seats for many shows, resulting in high quality recordings. In 1977, he switched over to a Nakamichi 550 tape recorder, two Nakamichi CM-300 microphones, and continued using Maxell cassettes.
He recorded many of the major 70's bands: Yes, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Queen, Blue Oyster Cult, Frank Zappa, Jethro Tull, ELP, Kiss, Black Sabbath, The Who, Al Stewart, Alice Cooper, Jeff Beck, Bruce Springsteen, Supertramp, Jean-Luc Ponty, Moody Blues, Neil Young, The Faces, Rush, Rick Wakeman, Kansas, as well as several "under the radar" acts.
Since Dan never traded copies of his recordings, they are all essentially uncirculated. Some copies were made for friends, but these releases are the first time most of these recordings have ever seen the light of day, and are direct from his master cassettes. No EQ'ing has been done to any of the transfers. Feel free to EQ, matrix, patch, etc and re-post if you like, just give Dan credit for the original recording.
Dan was very meticulous about taking good care of his tapes and is very pleased that these recordings will now circulate among the trading community. Please honour his kindness and generosity by sharing these recordings freely.
Always remember - the more generous you are with your music, the more it comes back to you.

Pink Floyd: Signs of Life 1988 (Vinyl RIP VG Aud) FLAC

Pink Floyd Signs of Life - ACL Edition 003 Blk Vinyl MTX No. ACL 003-A/B/C/D/E/F
DSCN4107
Direct Transfer from Vinyl by creamcheese
OU Story:
I bought this boot (I'm almost shure it's a bout) when i was still very young.
It was played quite a lot then because i saw them on that tour twice on 1988-06-29 (Dortmund) and 1989-06-18 (Cologne). No need to say that i was very impressed. Especially the version they played of WTTM (drums on the end) really impressed me. So i was quite disappointed to see, that this track was not included on the DSOT live album. So i bought this one. It´s a limited edition of 1000 copies. You get the transfer of #435. Try to get all the others. They maybe different. ;-)
It is recorded in oslo, norway on 1988-08-02.
SQ is 7/10 for a 1988 recording i would say. Unfortunately there is a guy near the taper who is very proud to know most of the song titles. At least gilmour and the audience seem to have been in a fine mood that night.

Transfer Lineage: Direct Driven Turntable, equipped with a Ortophon OM 10 Super cartridge mounted properly (with E. Schön moulding tool), Cambridge Audio 540 P phono preamp, RME HDSP 9632 @ 24/48, careful declicking, indexing, flac level 7 with TLH, yeeshkul tracker, you.

Qween: Hippodrome 1973 Complete (3 Source) FLAC

sr746444872-front
Venue: Golders Green Hippodrome, London, UK
Date: 13. September 1973

OU Notes: This is a 3-source compilation of this great recording. This is the oldest Queen live recording which made it to the bootleg market. Two older recordings are rumoured - Ewell College 1971 and Marquee Club 1972, but it seems that Ewell College doesn't exist (the recording is actually a slowed-down version of the rock'n'roll medley coming from this concert), and the Marquee 72 recording was sold to Queen Productions (but they claim now that the don't have it), which means that this is the oldest Queen show we can get.
The performance is incredible. The sound quality is absolutely excellent, the only problem is that Freddie's vocal is mixed too low, it sounds like the band is standing right before you, but Freddie sings from another room. But still it's very enjoyable.
This show was bootleged many, many times, but never in complete form. The most complete version comes from the "Digital Queen Archives" bootleg called "Queen Will Be Crowned", which misses one line from the introduction, and has a couple of small few seconds cuts. When this recording was shared on QueenZone (http://www.queenzone.com), QZ user "stark" remastered it and shared it again.
This remaster was used by me in this project as "source 1".
My "source 2" was a different rebroadcast of this show, I used only one line from the intro from this source.
My "source 3" comes from the "Wardour" silver bootleg called "Pop Spectacular". This recording has much, much better sound quality then all other recodings, because it comes from a BBC Transcription disc. The bad thing is that it misses a big part of Son And Daughter, some speeches, See What A Fool I've Been and all songs after Liar.
I have used all 3 sources to create this compilation which is now for the very first time COMPLETE and every track has BEST AVAILABLE SOUND QUALITY.
The editing was done in Cool Edit Pro. The final wav file was split to single tracks, which were SBE fixed and encoded to FLAC with Trader's Little Helper. TLH was also used for FLAC fingerprints. I have added an Audiochecker log file.
Enjoy

This version of "Zoot Allures" was used on the mail-order guitar album Frank Zappa Plays the Music of Frank Zappa. During Chunga's Revenge and Zoot Allures, some annoying ticking sound can be heard. I don't know if that was on the original tape.
Other than that, this is an excellent sounding recording, considering the year it was taped. I believe this is a rather low generation, judging by my old ears.

From Wiki
Bruce Frederick Joseph Springsteen (born September 23, 1949), nicknamed The Boss, is an American singer-songwriter. He records and tours with the E Street Band. Springsteen is widely known for his brand of heartland rock infused with pop hooks, poetic lyrics, and Americana sentiments centered on his native New Jersey.
Springsteen's recordings have tended to alternate between commercially accessible rock albums and somber folk-oriented works. Much of his status stems from the concerts and marathon shows in which he and the E Street Band perform intense ballads, rousing anthems, and party rock and roll songs, amongst which he intersperses whimsical or deeply emotional stories.
His most famous albums[citation needed], Born to Run and Born in the U.S.A., epitomize his penchant for finding grandeur in the struggles of daily life in America. He has gradually become identified with liberal politics. He is also noted for his support of various relief and rebuilding efforts in New Jersey and elsewhere, and for his response to the September 11th attacks, on which his album The Rising reflects.
He has earned numerous awards for his work, including nineteen Grammy Awards, two Golden Globes and an Academy Award, and continues to have a strong global fan base. He has sold more than 65 million albums in the United States and 120 million worldwide.[2]
Springsteen was born in Long Branch, New Jersey, and spent his childhood and high school years in Freehold Boro. He lived off South Street in Freehold Boro and attended Freehold Regional High School (today known as Freehold Borough High School). His father, Douglas Frederick Springsteen, was, amongst other vocations, a bus driver of Dutch and Irish ancestry; his surname is Dutch for stepping stone.[3] His mother, Adele Ann Zerilli, was a legal secretary of Italian ancestry, notably his grandfather was born in Vico Equense, a city near Naples.[4] He has an older sister, Virginia - who took photos for the Human Touch and Lucky Town albums - and a younger sister, Pamela. Pamela Springsteen had a brief film career, but left acting to pursue still photography full time. Raised a Roman Catholic,[5] Springsteen attended the St. Rose of Lima parochial school in Freehold Borough, where he was at odds with both the nuns and other students, even though much of his later music reflected a deep Catholic ethos and included many rock-influenced, traditional Irish-Catholic hymns.[6]
In ninth grade he transferred to the public Freehold Regional High School, but did not fit in there either. He completed high school but felt so uncomfortable that he skipped his own graduation ceremony.[7] He briefly attended Ocean County College, but dropped out.[6]
Springsteen had been inspired to take up music at the age of seven after seeing Elvis Presley on The Ed Sullivan Show. At 13, he bought his first guitar for $18; later, his mother took out a loan to buy the 16-year-old Springsteen a $60 Kent guitar, an event he later memorialized in his song The Wish.
In 1965, he went to the house of Tex and Marion Vinyard, who sponsored young bands in town. They helped him become lead guitarist and subsequently the lead singer of The Castiles. The Castiles recorded two original songs at a public recording studio in Brick Township, New Jersey and played a variety of venues, including Cafe Wha in Greenwich Village. Marion Vinyard said that she believed the young Springsteen when he promised he would make it big.[8]
In the late 1960s, Springsteen performed briefly in a power trio known as Earth, playing in clubs in New Jersey. Springsteen acquired the nickname The Boss during this period as when he played club gigs with a band he took on the task of collecting the band's nightly pay and distributing it amongst his bandmates.[9] Springsteen, however, has never liked this nickname, due to his dislike of bosses.[10] Previously he had the nickname Doctor.[11] From 1969 through early 1971, Springsteen performed with Steel Mill, which also featured Danny Federici, Vini Lopez, Vinnie Roslin and later Steve Van Zandt and Robbin Thompson. They went on to play the mid-Atlantic college circuit, and also briefly in California. In January 1970 well-known San Francisco Examiner music critic Philip Elwood gave Springsteen credibility in his glowing assessment of Steel Mill I have never been so overwhelmed by totally unknown talent. Elwood went on to praise their cohesive musicality and, in particular, singled out Springsteen as a most impressive composer. During this time Springsteen also performed regularly at small clubs in Asbury Park and along the Jersey Shore, quickly gathering a cult following. Other acts followed over the next two years, as Springsteen sought to shape a unique and genuine musical and lyrical style Dr Zoom & the Sonic Boom (early–mid 1971), Sundance Blues Band (mid 1971), and The Bruce Springsteen Band (mid 1971–mid 1972). With the addition of pianist David Sancious, the core of what would later become the E Street Band was formed, with occasional temporary additions such as horn sections, The Zoomettes ( a group of female backing vocalists for Dr Zoom ) and Southside Johnny Lyon on harmonica. Musical genres explored included blues, R&B, jazz, church music, early rock'n'roll, and soul. His prolific songwriting ability, with more words in some individual songs than other artists had in whole albums, brought his skill to the attention of several people who were about to change his life new managers Mike Appel and Jim Cretecos, and legendary Columbia Records talent scout John Hammond, who, under Appel's pressure, auditioned Springsteen in May 1972.
Even after Springsteen gained international acclaim, his New Jersey roots showed through in his music, and he often praised the great state of New Jersey in his live shows. Drawing on his extensive local appeal, he routinely sold out consecutive nights in major New Jersey and Philadelphia venues. He also made many surprise appearances at The Stone Pony and other shore nightclubs over the years, becoming the foremost exponent of the Jersey Shore sound.

Geetarz Comments: An interesting document of a noteworthy concert, the second of EC's "holiday" summer tour of the UK in 1976.
There's good news and bad news ... the good news is that Mid Valley has done some extensive remastering of this recording, which in some ways makes it more listenable than the Silver Horse release. The bad news, is that the remastering has also revealed a high frequency whine which to some people will greatly reduce the listenability of the recording.

Review Bobsboots:
The Italian Label KTS quickly established themselves as the Crown Prince of bootleg CDs in the early 1990's. Their beautiful packages, silk-screened CDs, graphics, aesthetics, and quality of recordings was surpassing the reigning king 'Swinging Pig'. This release is a prime example. The double CD was released in the new slim line jewel case with a 12 page booklet of images, itineraries, and reviews. Each CD is silk-screened with an image from the booklet. The graphics are over the top.
This represents nearly the entire 28 song show in great soundboard quality.
Two missing songs (official).
They had never surfaced among tape traders at the time of this release. Each song is very tastefully edited in and out to eliminate in between song down time. There is no music lost, but some purists may find it annoying. There is also a small amount of white noise (tape hiss).

Concert Review
Dylan delivers a knock-out performance. The gospel material is powerful and biting without a condescending edge. The older standards are performed with a new fire and passion that includes them among the best live versions to date.
Dylan stumbles on the lyrics once or twice, but adds new lines as well that more than compensate.
The vocals are crisp are over the top out front and in your face. The music is tight, well mixed, and well performed.
It might be a little dark, murky, and low in the overall mix for some tastes. Don't let that sway you from this incredible piece, however. Others will find the vocals to music relation pure heaven.
What I have is what you get, ENJOY!

Jeff Beck Group: BBC Sessions 1967 – 1968 FLAC

7-1968-Front
OU Notes: I've made a start (using Audacity) at pitch correction and volume/EQ normalization for the various sources below. Of note is that not all songs from each session are from the same recording, and I'm not sure I've caught all the subtleties. However, there is no way the sound quality is all VG to EX; the best are VG, the worst are G or slightly less.
Here's the original description, with the track numbers 5 & 6 reversed (by me).
Lineage - CDR from Trade - WAV (EAC Test & Copy) Secure Mode - FLAC Level 8 (Traders Little Helper) – You
Some are from the original radio broadcasts while others are from Transcription LP’s. A few of the tracks repeat when they are featured from radio broadcast and transcription LP. Quality in the main is Excellent with a few tracks a little bellow but never falling bellow EX- or VG/EX.
All sessions have recording dates and broadcast dates and all tracks are unreleased officially. Full artwork included.
This is a really nice collection and a must for any fan of the early Jeff Beck Group.

BAND LINE UPS:
Jeff Beck – Rod Stewart – Ron Wood – Mickey Waller –Dave Ambrose (Tracks 1, 2, 7, 8 9, 10, 11 & 12)
Jeff Beck – Rod Stewart – Ron Wood – Aynsley Dunbar (Tracks 3, 4, 13 & 14)
Jeff Beck – Rod Stewart – Ron Wood – Mickey Waller (Tracks 5, 6, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 & 24)

The Rolling Stones: Goats Head Soup Mickboy Remix

Dancing_So_Free_back
Dancing So Freeely
MICKBOY / TORN & FRAYED 011
LINEAGE: Original Mickboy CD-R -> my good friend Scottkeef -> CD-R copy -> me -> WAV (EAC) -> FLAC (flacfrontend) -> YOU
DATE/VENUE: Studio sessions 1972-1973
(see included scans for comments / further info)

OU COMMENTS:
I'm not a fan of "remasters" - not official, nor unofficial - 9 out of 10 always let one down; compared to the original release. The recent Universal Music release of "Goats Head Soup" lacks everything - they tried to "do something", but whatever it was.....they didn't have a clue on where to go. It sounds awful.
To me, there's only 2 "versions" of Goats Head Soup that is worth listening to. It's the official, original release - which is very muddy, dark and unclear. But it's also this Mickboy remix - which turned it into a very different listening....it's suddenly rocking and cooking in a different way compared to the original album. Mickboy also included outtakes and alternates for Dancing So Free. When it comes to "Mickboy"...I'm not a "fan" nor an "enemy"..."he" has some poor products, some unecessary, and some real fine ones. I find "Dancing So Free" to be among those very fine/interesting ones.....at least as a change to the "original mood" of GHS.
All this being said.....I think Univeral Music did a great job on other of those RS albums....IORR and B&B have never sounded better before, on CD, that is. (Still haven't recieved the rest of the CDs)
This sounds VERY different from the official product (unlike for instance the Mickboy "Let It Bleed" which was available here last year....it sounded like the official album with the bass & treble boosted)
Thanks to Scottkeef for the copy !

ARTWORK: Included (taken from rs.covers)

TRACKLIST:
01. Dancing With Mr. D
02. 100 Years Ago
03. Coming Down Again
04. Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker)
05. Angie
06. Silver Train
07. Criss Cross Mind (not included on the official album)
08. Hide Your Love

11. Star Star
"BONUS":
12. Angie (from the "promo-video" [=different vocals] )
13. Seperately (outtake from December 1972 - instrumental)
14. Winter (less "produced" than the released version....it's not "a different version" though)
15. Tops (outtake from December 1972 - instrumental)
16. Dancing With Mr. D (from the "promo-video" [=different vocals] )
17. Silver Train (it differs from the released version - it's more rocking I'd say)
Enjoy the soup!

OU Notes: It was an independant recording from th PA system ... I was in a separate room with a 24-tracks desk to mix the show the master was done on a HiFi video tape (lost) and it was the secure copy (Sony TCDM) i numerised ...Maybe i've done some mistakes in the setlist, specially for the long tracks (1,3 and 8)
As usual, the first track is chaotic until i found the right balanced mix .... it's life !! some overloads from time to time (Rollins voice) ... cause no limiter/compressor used ! but it's sounded very well and i took a great pleasure to listen to it after 20 years of sleep (in a box !) ... hope it will be the same for you ! PLAY IT LOUD !!!!!

Dan Lampinski recorded over 100 concerts in the Providence/Boston area, mostly between 1974 and 1978. His earliest recordings were made with an internal microphone deck, and though they are somewhat lo-fi compared to his later work, some very great moments in rock history were captured for posterity. In late 1974 he bought a Sony TC-152SD tape recorder, a Sony ECM-99 stereo microphone, and began using Maxell cassettes. He was also fortunate enough to have a friend who provided excellent taping seats for many shows, resulting in high quality recordings. In 1977, he switched over to a Nakamichi 550 tape recorder, two Nakamichi CM-300 microphones, and continued using Maxell cassettes.
He recorded many of the major 70's bands: Yes, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Queen, Blue Oyster Cult, Frank Zappa, Jethro Tull, ELP, Kiss, Black Sabbath, The Who, Al Stewart, Alice Cooper, Jeff Beck, Bruce Springsteen, Supertramp, Jean-Luc Ponty, Moody Blues, Neil Young, The Faces, Rush, Rick Wakeman, Kansas, as well as several "under the radar" acts.
Since Dan never traded copies of his recordings, they are all essentially uncirculated. Some copies were made for friends, but these releases are the first time most of these recordings have ever seen the light of day, and are direct from his master cassettes. No EQ'ing has been done to any of the transfers. Feel free to EQ, matrix, patch, etc and re-post if you like, just give Dan credit for the original recording.
Dan was very meticulous about taking good care of his tapes and is very pleased that these recordings will now circulate among the trading community. Please honour his kindness and generosity by sharing these recordings freely.
The transfers are available as 16bit/44.1KHz flac files suitable for CD burning, and also as 24bit/96KHz flac files for those who prefer the higher resolution.
Always remember - the more generous you are with your music, the more it comes back to you.

Pink Floyd: BBC Omnibus 1969 (FM) shn

lots of notes here.
1969-07-20-Omnibus
1969-07-20 - BBC Omnibus - What if it's Just Green Cheese
from pf-roio db:
The BBC's "Omnibus" series documented the Apollo 11 space mission in a programme entitled "What If It's Just Green Cheese?". Pink Floyd performed live in the studio, providing suitably spacey music throughout the programme. Collector have had audio tapes of this for several years and refer to the music as "Moonhead". The band claim they improvised the entire six-minute instrumental from scratch.
from "In The Flesh" book :
A live TV recording session for the one-hour BBC1 TV Omnibus special entitled " So what if its just green cheese", one of many programmes covering the Apollo 11 moon landing. It was broadcast on 20.7.69 at 10.00pm and featured Judi Dench, Ian McKellen, Michael Horden, Roy Dotrice, Marian Montgomery, Dudley Moore and the Dudley Moore Trio. Pink Floyd performed a 5+ minute improvisation which has become known as "Moonhead"
Apollo 11
My moon-landing jam session

David Gilmour - The Guardian, Thursday 2 July 2009
We [Pink Floyd] were in a BBC TV studio jamming to the landing. It was a live broadcast, and there was a panel of scientists on one side of the studio, with us on the other. I was 23.
The programming was a little looser in those days, and if a producer of a late-night programme felt like it, they would do something a bit off the wall. Funnily enough I've never really heard it since, but it is on YouTube. They were broadcasting the moon landing and they thought that to provide a bit of a break they would show us jamming. It was only about five minutes long. The song was called Moonhead - it's a nice, atmospheric, spacey, 12-bar blues.
I also remember at the time being in my flat in London, gazing up at the moon, and thinking, "There are actually people standing up there right now." It brought it home to me powerfully, that you could be looking up at the moon and there would be people standing on it.
At the time, Pink Floyd had been doing rather well. For a while, the band had been somewhat erratic and its reputation was sinking. I joined in 1968, 18 months before the moon landing. By then we were beginning to climb back up again.
It was fantastic to be thinking that we were in there making up a piece of music, while the astronauts were standing on the moon. It doesn't seem conceivable that that would happen on the BBC nowadays.
It didn't have a significant impact on our later work. I think at the time Roger [Waters], our lyricist, was looking more into going inwards, going into the inner space of the human mind and condition. And I think that was sort of the end of our exploration into outer space.
We didn't make any songs out of the jam session. We did, on occasions, do music live that would be a jam session of some sort; that would have some structure which we would organise ourselves. And I've heard documentaries where I recognise my music. It's very odd to be watching a documentary and to hear something that you know is yourself, but you have no recognition of when you did it or how. I've never forgotten Moonhead, though.
After all, it's not hard to remember exactly where I was.
• Moonhead was broadcast at 10pm on 20 July 1969.
Seems Mr. Gilmour it's in a good mood...hey, open the vaults!!!!

Review
Perhaps the ultimate collection of Clash rarities. Taking you right through their career. From the first sessions for Polydor in late 1976, right up to the outtake for the "Janie Jones" single in 1982. Along with 'Clash On Broadway Outtakes' and 'The Rat Patrol' you almost have all The Clash demos, outtakes and alternates. The Polydor demos have been discussed elsewhere before but the versions here are the excellent quality ones, probably taken straight from the master tapes that now reside in the vaults of Polydor. The Micky Foote demos are another set of first album songs, along with the interesting Janie Jones instrumental and the studio chatter in the background. The highlights of this double disc set for me are the alternate studio mixes of "White Man", "Clash City Rockers" (which I believe is superior to the official version), "The Prisoner", "1-2 Crush On You" and "Pressure Drop". The promo video shoot tracks are also excellent, and are the best alternate versions of "White Riot" and "1977" ("1977" is simply amazing.) The band are on fire for those tracks.

You'll notice this compilation serves as a very handy substitute for 'London's Burning' and 'For All The Young Punks'. The 'Rope demos here are of much better quality. In fact, we almost have all the album. Then of course the interesting soundcheck rarities. Muddy Water's "Baby Please Don't Go" is a great one, very rocking, and there are also a couple of 'London Calling' era songs that are also on 'Pier Pressure'. The 'Sandinista!' outtakes are nothing new, though it is thought that it's Norman Watt-Roy on bass for "King Of The Road", as he replaced Paul (who was off shooting a film in Canada) for much of the 'Sandinista!' sessions. The "Revolution Rock" instrumental is a good song to have, and pretty rare also. A song I heard here first time of all was the "Cool Confusion" alternate mix, which is actually pretty good. The addition of drums in the mix makes a big difference.
So all in all, this richly deserves a 10. I've sort of glossed over the details a lot but the songs speak for themselves really. Adam Headland (Clash On Tour) has done a good job gathering together all the loose ends of Clash studio rarities. These all seem to be the best quality sources as well. I'll also mention the "What's My Name" live track. Not strictly a demo or anything, but just included for fun I think. It's the same song as the famous video where Joe turns to the camera: "Here we are on TV, what does it mean to you? What does it mean to me? ... Fuck Off!"

Highly recommended, all Clash fans must have this. Rated: 10 / 10

Harry Nilsson: Secret Tracks (Studio) FLAC

nt-52-front
(demos, alternate takes, unreleased songs) (FLAC)
Lineage: Studio masters > DAT > Cassette > Adobe Audition > FLAC > you
OU Notes: I'm not aware of any of these tracks having been released anywhere before. They came to me as a tape transfer project some years back. There is no information about them... no dates, locations, nothing - although we can be sure that most everything here was recorded in Los Angeles, where Harry lived.
There is some fascinating stuff here. My favorite is "Feet," which could have been a single.
In addition to work previously performed, I ran all the tracks through Audition 3 for phase correction. You will occasionally hear what sounds like very slight DAT mistracking. It's not bad, and not enough to detract from the music.
There isn't any artwork, but if anyone would like to make some, please feel free!

OU Summary:
Having just been released, ELO's 1978 Out Of The Blue, was the groups most commercially successful album to date and set in motion a string of worldwide tour dates, culminating in the band's success of being labeled a "Supergroup" and playing before capacity audiences around the world - certainly the largest they had ever played. This show finds the boys in Osaka, Japan for a night of great music played to a high anticipation capacity crowd.
This is the period in the group's career when everything began to break-out from a commercial standpoint. Some people prefer their earlier material as opposed to the later; I happen to love it all. However, one thing is for certain: ELO went from it's more or less progressive rock roots in the early and mid-1970's, to a full-fledged pop-rock act, complete with lasers and a giant UFO spaceship -which they performed in at all shows on the tour - in the latter half of the decade and straight through the 80's.
This recording is somewhat rare its existence in that it is the lesser known of the only 2 known recordings to circulate from the Out Of The Blue tour. The other recording is London's Wembley Arena (see below), which falls quite short in my opinion, from being considered a definitive example of the majestic sound ELO generated. The mix is most-sterile sounding until halfway through when it evens out. The thing that the London show really has going for it is that it's a great performance, which the Osaka show is as well.
As many memorable Japanese rock concerts confirm from so many bands of that decade this is a very respectful audience. The crowd is "as good as it gets" for a rock concert of this scale back in the 70’s: they applaud between songs and remain quiet while their being played. There is a small amount of chatter by either the taper or someone close to them in a couple points in the show but it is between songs and in no way is distracting. The first time I listened to this recording, I was struck by how mellow the audience is between songs. I distinctly remember thinking to myself, "man, they must all be halfway sedated or something" because their so respectful. That's the Japanese audiences back then. The vibe is not-at-all what you would hear at most shows in the U.S. back then. It's real nice!
In terms of performance quality, the band is most definitely in top form - harmonies are tight, rhythm section is on and the band is most certainly enjoying themselves. In terms of overall sound quality, the taper is a little distant from the source; however, let that not be a limitation whatsoever. The band can be heard clearly with EVERY instrument and, in my humble opinion, I think the distance of this taper from the source allows for maximum connection between the sound by the band and the acoustics of the room, creating that inimitable feeling of "being there" when you listen to it. Add to that the historical significance of this tour for the band and you quickly come to realize this one is unparalleled.
If you're a fan or just have a passing interest this one is most definitely worth checking out!
If I had to choose between the London - which is very much incomplete! - and the COMPLETE, note for note, Japan show, the latter would win out without question.
