Collectors Music Reviews

I am going to try to order the Palm Beach release his tomorrow and will do a review if I manage to grab one.

The 69 tour is my favorite so can’t pass up the chance for a possible upgrade as the old tape is very good except for the speed flutuations so hope this is as reported. Just ordered this from a vendor in Japan and was informed it will be available 11/7 for shipment. Do we know for sure this is a SB recording as it has been reported on IORR this may be another audience tape?

Apologies, I’ve had to edit my post .. I’ve seen enough info to deem that this release is actually mastered from the original audience but somehow “remastered”. It is be true that the label has tried to fix the problems of the tapes but the soundboard was part of an over excited imagination.

Pity it is not a SB as it would have been the first complete SB from that tour.

Any upgrade is welcome but if it is the old tape source, which has the speed problems, is there some way to smooth those out digitally? Otherwise can’t see this being a big upgrade over what we already have. Will give a review once I get my copy.

Well, that is indeed very disappointing. Mine’s already on the way so I guess I’ll look forward to the Byrds, Sly, Johnny Winter et. al. portions.

Thanks to everyone to for your first reactions. The fact that it’s a cleaner transfer is good but that it’s actually THE SAME TAPE with the wobbles and speed problems is disappointing. Certainly not worth the cost that Idol Mind charge.
