Our own S taped the Seattle shows and then drove to Oakland (on a gasless Sunday, he'll remind you, as this was in the middle of the energy crisis) to record both sets there. After the tour completed, S took out classified ad (which I hope to find some day) in Rolling Stone magazine looking to trade tapes of the tour with others who recorded., He didn't collect the entire tour, but he did track down a handful of shows on reel to reel, including the early and late sets from Houston. Given when and how it was obtained, and what S has told me over the years, he got these tapes from people who recorded the shows themselves, so there's a strong reason to believe this show is legitimately second generation. I assume second generation because the cassette may have been moved to a safety reel, of which this is a copy. The taper conserved tape, as was often the case in those days, by pausing between songs., As such many of these tracks are joined a second or two in progress, but you still come away with feeling of hearing the entire show. As the recent posts of '74 tapes has made clear, this tour wasn't consistently well recorded and there are several shows for which the only circulating recordings are often described as passable, listenable or worse. This one is really good all considering better than passable and better and more complete than the late show recording in all aspects. It is not a perfect recording by any means but it is a very enjoyable and clear sounding for the most part. Unlike other versions out there this contains The Band's portion of the set pretty much complete with only Loving You (Is Sweeter Than Ever) cutting out prematurely. We believe this to be an upgrade in sound quality and completeness to all existing circulating copies but you the listener will be the ultimate decider on that (but we do believe you will come to the same conclusion after listening)., Butterking for JEMS
