Pass this by quickly!.......2001-06-16
Live in 1973.......2001-02-20
The material on this disc was recorded in concert from 2 different sources: tracks 1-7 from Palesports in Torino, Italy back in 1973 ("In A Glass House" era), and the recording quality is abominable: the master tape probably comes from a cassette in someone's winter jacket! The sound balance that's left is mostly keyboards and vocals, while the bass and guitars are drowned...
However, this is the first time I hear a rendition of "Plain Truth" in concert, and it features an interesting violin solo.
The last 2 tracks come from a broadcast with much greater sound quality, and you can hear the band at their musical best.
An interesting document overall despite the general sound quality. Get it if you're a die-hard fan, otherwise, if you want some live stuff, get "Playing The Fool".
