Comments:
A brilliant early performance that captures most
of the first album live. This is one of the most common and best radio
broadcasts from a time when this band mattered. "Another Time, Another
Place" is played, despite not being listed on the cover. The second version
of "11 O'Clock Tick Tock" does not come from a separate show. The band
actually played it twice during this show! Unfortunately, this CD is not
indexed, making it impossible to quickly jump from track-to-track. The
cover is a 4-panel insert and tray card.
The sound quality is excellent radio broadcast
(soundboard). This performance was originally recorded for WBCN-FM radio
in Boston. It was then pressed as the Warner Brothers Music Show promo
LP, 'Two Sides Live'. It was from a copy of the promo LP, that this CD
was mastered. As such, vinyl pops and ticks can be heard. There is also
a skip that repeats about four times during "Things To Make And Do". Despite
the vinyl source, this is still an excellent soundboard recording. |
