I agree with Hager that for a 1969 recording and thanks to the mastering of this source, we have a very nice release that gives a entire different perspective of what these lucky fans witnessed on this hot August day in Texas. This is one of my favorite 1969 shows to surface and even though this isn’t the best source and would probably not please the casual collector, I suggest anyone that is a fan of this show to seek this out.

For me, it’s always entertaining to hear the audience response to a concert, and this source provides this insight WITHOUT it being a distraction. Pot smoking during Dazed and Confused as Jimmy goes into the eerie bow solo, accompanied by coughs and fan cheering, provides a fantastic glimpse into what it must have been like to witness this outdoor show. And the recording’s surprisingly good for a 1969 audience tape, with all frequency ranges heard nicely. Bonzo’s riding of the cowbell in Dazed is heard perfectly, to give a further idea about the recording’s quality. Sure, it’s not the pristine alleged mixing board recording, but that’s one of the cool things about it for me. Compared to other audience recordings of Zep, whether 1969 or otherwise, this can easily be considered very good. Tarantura’s packaging is, as usual, extremely tasteful, making this precisely what’s so addictive about this hobby of collecting live music recordings.
