Customer Reviews:
bootleg warning.......2006-04-06
i agree with the previous review,as a fan and proud owner of most of GG works,this is a very very poor audience hand held type of recording,unlike the DEAD concerts there appears to be no set area to get good audience recordings.1 star for the music -5 stars for the recording.if you want live GG pick up Playing The Fool.
Buyer Beware: Bootleg!.......2003-01-04
The emergence of this disc greatly excited me. This was a very fine year for Gentle Giant (1975), and one of the two shows contained on this 2-CD set was recorded in Berkely, CA (my home away from home). However, I was HUGELY disappointed when I put these discs in my player. Both concerts were recorded with handheld tape recorders from the audience. Translation: these are bootleg recordings. They sound simply dreadful, and are only required for the completists. The first show (From White Plains, NY) sounds better than the Berkeley show, but neither is listenable.
