Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
12/09/79	Pavillion De Paris	Paris	France	2 CDR		notes		Absolutely stellar sound quality, and the show is fun stuff. This band's live stuff is wicked entertaining.

¤ Al Stewart ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
07/09/95	Club Maui	Philadelphia	PA	2 CDR		notes		This guy's pretty cool. If nothing else, just listen to his introduction to Antarctica... "I was attempting outdoor congress with a particularly attractive eskimess." Lawrence Juber plays a crazy acoustic guitar, too.

¤ Alison Krauss & Union Station ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
09/02/95	Salem County Fair Grounds	Woodstown	NJ	2 CDR		notes		Very good sound, and a fun little bluegrass show. Missing Steel Rails, but the rest of the show is pretty cool.

¤  Allman Brothers Band ¤

http://www.allmanbrothersband.com

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
02/14/70	Fillmore East	New York	NY	1 SHN		notes		Pretty short for an Allman Brothers set, but it's worth every minute. The sound is pretty much flawless.
04/04/70	Ludlow's Garage	Cincinnati	OH	2 CDR		notes		Wow, this show is really good. There's not a dull moment here. It's a super hot show! Only sound problems are a little hiss and some rawness in the sound, but I'd say it's pretty good.
07/26/70	S.U.N.Y. Gym	Stony Brook	NY	1 CDR		notes		Pretty hissy, but the instruments and vocals come through pretty well.
12/13/70	Leonard Gym, American University	Washington	DC	1 CDR		notes		Great sound quality, and another rocking Allman Bros show. Stormy Monday fades out, sadly, but there's enough good music to make up for it.
01/17/71	Syria Mosque	Pittsburgh	PA	1 CDR		notes		Sound is pretty muffled, but it's quite listenable. As always, the Allmans deliver a very nice performance. You Don't Love Me has some especially nice guitar interplay by Duane and Dickey.
01/30/71	Fillmore West	San Francisco	CA	1 CDR		notes		The recording is a bit deteriorated, but it's a fine fine show! An exceptionally hot Whipping Post, too.
03/13/71	Fillmore East (Early)	New York	NY	1 CDR		notes		A nearly perfect recording of a great show, though Elizabeth Reed and Mountain Jam have some hiss (it gets pretty bad at times, but it's still quite listenable). Apparently it's from the same original recording as the Fillmore Concerts, but these are not the touched up recordings we find on those albums.
03/20/71	The Warehouse	New Orleans	LA	2 SHN		notes		3 Audio discs Another good show. The only problem with is there's just too much hiss throughout the entire recording. The 47 minute Mountain Jam and the You Don't Love Me/Whipping Post jams would be fantastic otherwise. See tech notes for md5 info.
06/27/71	Fillmore East	New York	NY	1 SHN		notes	source	As always, it's a rocking show, with great soundboard quality as well.
08/26/71	A&R Studios	New York	NY	1 CDR		notes		This is one of the best sounding recordings of Duane era Allman Brothers I've heard, and it's quite delightful. You can't go wrong with a show this good.
09/16/71	The Warehouse	New Orleans	LA	2 SHN		notes	source	3 Audio discs. Sound quality isn't great, but it's passable. Vocals are nearly inaudible, and there are some points where the source is damaged. As always it's a great show. It's the Allman Bros. How could it not be?
07/12/72	The Spectrum	Philadelphia	PA	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. A very nice soundboard of the Brothers coming down from their prime. They rock pretty hard in this show, and even with Duane recently departed there's some fine musicianship here. Whipping Post and the encore jam are pretty amazing.
08/06/72	Hollywood Bowl	Los Angeles	CA	1 CDR		notes		A pretty good audience recording for its age, with some audience noise at times, but not too bad. The show is very fiery, especially those jams with Johnny Winter. Too bad it's not a soundboard.
06/09/73	RFK Stadium	Washington	DC	2 SHN		notes	source	3 audio discs. The sound starts off a little funny (mostly just the mix, sometimes the volume), but it's quite clear and has nice stereo sound. A pretty cool three hour show, with lots of guitar and keyboards to satisfy the soul.
06/10/73	Robert F. Kennedy Stadium	Washington	DC	2 SHN		notes	source	2 audio discs. The sound is mostly perfect, with just a few minor glitches here and there. It's a fine show, although it's missing most of Whipping Post. Good music all around, as always.
12/31/73	Cow Palace	Daly City	CA	3 SHN		notes	source	4 Audio discs. An essential Allman Bros recording. Sound is perfect in all ways, and the performance is stellar. There are a few very minor fluctuations in levels at points during the recording, but nothing very disturbing.
01/01/74	Cow Palace	Daly City	CA	2 CDR		notes		The sound is pretty tinny/hissy, but the really bad thing is that random channels die out and come back throughout the recording.
07/12/04	Uptown Theater	Kansas City	MO	2 SHN		notes	source	3 audio discs. These guys always put on a great show, no matter how many original members there are. This recording is great, and the show rocks. Whoever wrote the info file seems to have things a little wrong, though... Melissa is definitely not acoustic, the Drums/bass section of Instrumental Illness includes some full band jamming, and a few other things like that. Not a big deal, though. The music is where it's at!

¤ Animals ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
??/??/68	Live 1965-1968	Compilation	Compilation	3 CDR		notes		Most of the compilation sounds great. The 8/8/67 show sounds pretty bad, but everything else is good. Great Animals sound all around.

¤ The Band ¤

http://www.thebandmusic.net/

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
08/01/73	Roosevelt Stadium	Jersey City	NJ	1 FLAC		notes		The band at their best. The sound is pretty much perfect, aside from a few minor flaws.

¤ Barry Melton Band ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
08/24/01	Davis Commons	Davis	CA	2 CDR		notes		The mix fluctuates a little bit, but the recording is pretty clear otherwise. Sure, Cipollina's not there, but this band certainly captures that good old 60's jamming vibe. Very fun stuff.

¤ The Beach Boys ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
??/??/67	"Smile" (Vigotone version)	Los Angeles	CA	2 CDR		notes		Some great insane Beach Boys from the unreleased album.

¤ The Beatles ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
05/??/68	George Harrison's House	Esher, Surrey	England	1 CDR		notes		Unplugged White Album demos. Sound is a little raw, but you can't get any better than the Beatles.
01/30/69	Apple Records Rooftop	London	England	1 CDR		notes		The rooftop concert sounds great, and it's just one of those essential bootlegs. Filler is 11 tracks from the Twickenham sessions that sound almost perfect.
02/05/69	Get Back - The Final Glyn Johns Compilation	London	England	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs, which include Glyn Johns mix 1 and 2. Mix 1 is SHN, Mix 2 is FLAC. I guess this is the original Get Back album as it was going to be or something like that. It's the Beatles, so of course it's great.
??/??/70	Acoustic Submarine - Career Spanning Demos	London	UK	2 CDR		notes		Pretty cool stuff. Sounds like a bunch of (mostly) acoustic alternate takes and outtakes from the greatest band ever. A few tracks sound like they're the same as the album versions.

¤ Big Brother & The Holding Company ¤

https://etreedb.org/db/artists/update?qu=New+Riders+of+the+Purple+Sage&artist_key=250&submit=Edit

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
05/03/68	Shrine Expo Center	Los Angeles	CA	1 CDR		notes		Combination of 5/3 and 5/4/68. The mix gets a little weird sometimes, but in general it's a pretty clear recording.

¤ Big Smith ¤

http://www.bigsmithband.com/

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
01/10/04	Davey's Uptown Ramblers	Kansas City	MO	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. Very clean sound, although the mix is never quite perfect. Quite a hootenanny! This band rocks my socks, and they do some fine songs!

¤  Black Sabbath ¤

http://www.blacksabbath.com/

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
04/06/74	Ontario Motor Speedway	Ontario	CA	1 CDR		notes		Good sound, though it's a little raw. The show is nice and energetic. Good guitar playing, good shouting (yeah, ozzy), and good tunes.
11/04/83	Worcester Centrum	Worcester	MA	1 CDR		notes		Perfect sound from a radio broadcast. It's a hard rocking show, with lots of tasty guitar all over.

¤ Blind Faith ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
03/02/69	Morgan Studios	London	England	1 SHN		notes		Eric Clapton, Steve Winwood, & Ginger Baker doing what they do best. Sounds great in every possible way.

¤ Blind Melon ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
09/12/95	Much Music studios	Toronto	ON	1 CDR		notes		Great sound, and a very nice performance. I keep forgetting these guys have more than one song. There are some really great songs here. Too bad the band is no longer.

¤  Blue Floyd ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
02/12/00	Variety Playhouse	Atlanta	GA	3 CDR		notes		This is pretty great stuff! Perfect sound quality, and really fantastic renditions of great songs. It's quite fun to listen to.

¤ Blue Mountain ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
10/??/97	Blue Alley	Hattiesburg	MS	1 FLAC		notes		Sound is not perfect, but very listenable. The show is nice, with some cool covers and good originals. The band is just having a good time, and it shows.
02/17/00	FitzGerald's	Berwyn	IL	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. Great audience recording! This show has so much energy, it nearly knocks me right over. And holy crap is Cary Hudson a fine guitarist... listen to this recording right now!

¤ Blues Project ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
09/07/66	The Matrix Club	San Francisco	CA	1 SHN		notes		Other Nights Other Vaults vol 1 Pretty muddy sound and pretty muffled vocals, but the instruments sound pretty good. An excellent live band. Left channel drops out during tracks 2-3.
03/17/81	Bond's International Casino	New York	NY	3 CDR		notes		Great soundboard quality, and man is this a great show! All kinds of fun, and great musicianship all around. It's hard to find anything by this classic 60's band, so when a great recording like this comes around it's a real treat.

¤ Bob Dylan & Johnny Cash ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
02/18/69	Columbia Records Studio	Nashville	TN	1 FLAC		notes		Fun stuff, and fine sound quality. Cash is pretty goofy and fun listening all the time. Dylan doesn't add all that much, but it's entertaining anyway. Girl From The North Country isn't included on this disc.

¤  Bob Marley & The Wailers ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
07/07/78	Ahoy Hall	Rotterdam	Netherlands	1 SHN		notes		2 audio discs. Sound is a little thin, but not bad. Some nice moments, and mostly it's good foot-tappin' music.

¤  The Breakfast ¤

http://www.thebreakfast.net/

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
02/27/04	Webster Theatre	Hartford	CT	2 FLAC		notes		3 audio discs. A high energy show with great sound. It doesn't always hold my attention, but some parts are really crazy. This band can play some of the best jams I've heard.

¤ Brent Best and Cary Hudson ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
02/19/04	Barley House	Dallas	TX	2 SHN		notes		Perfect soundboard recording of a very nice acoustic concert. It's pretty nice to hear Cary interspersed with Brent for a kind of folk hootenanny. Two really nice voices and songwriters... good stuff.

¤ Bruce Hornsby ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
10/20/04	Palace Theatre	Albany	NY	1 FLAC		notes	source	2 audio discs. Nice recording quality, and it's a pretty cool show. Nice and grooooovy. The audience isn't loud.

¤ Bruce Springsteen ¤

http://brucespringsteen.net

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
02/05/75	The Main Point	Bryn Mawr	PA	2 CDR		notes		The vocals are a little low in the mix sometimes, but otherwise it's a crystal clear recording and a fine show.

¤ Buffalo Springfield ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
??/??/66	Stampede Studio Recordings	Various	Various	1 CDR		notes		The recording shows its age (even for a studio recording), but unless you want to pay for the Buffalo Springfield Box Set, this is the best place to get lots of otherwise unreleased songs, which are all extremely great songs. The live filler has terrible vocals but the guitar solos still sound nice.
??/??/68	Missing Herd Disc 1	Compilation	Compilation	1 CDR		notes		The recording quality is never perfect here, but some of the songs are pretty listenable, and the performance quality is amazing!
??/??/68	Missing Herd Disc 2	Compilation	Compilation	1 CDR		notes		Sound quality varies, but it is mostly very good. The Monterey Pop Festival songs are particularly amazing (R&R Woman>Bluebird is intense).

¤  The Byrds ¤

http://thebyrds.com

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
02/28/67	Radiohuset, Studio 4	Stockholm	Sweden	1 SHN		notes		Perfect sound quality for a very short show. It's only about 20 minutes long with six songs and six small introductions for them.
11/02/68	Avalon Ballroom	San Francisco	CA	1 FLAC		notes		A fine, fine show by a bunch of great musicians. The recording shows some age, but for the most part, it's a good listen. There's some nice slide guitar on most of the songs, too, which makes it even more awesome.
02/22/69	Boston Tea Party	Boston	MA	1 CDR		notes		Perfect sound, and a great country rock set. Loads of fun!
01/04/70	Fillmore West	San Francisco	CA	2 CDR		notes		Delightful! The guitars are right up front in the mix, although the drums and bass should be a bit higher, the show overall is amazing.
09/20/70	Pacific Memorial Stadium	Stockton	CA	2 CDR		notes		Great sound for the most part, although there are a few sound glitches from the original tape and/or the soundboard from time to time. The Byrds rip it up for a nice long, action packed set.
??/??/70	Ash Grove	Los Angeles	CA	1 CDR		notes		Pretty good sound, although the mix isn't perfect at first. The show is pretty nice, with some fine guitar work by Clarence White, and a few snazzy guests.

¤ Cary Hudson ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
01/24/03	Hal & Mal's	Jackson	MS	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. Very well recorded show, with just a little bit of quiet audience chatter in the background. Hudson is definitely one of the better current musicians and songwriters. Very nice stuff.
09/26/03	Mojo's	Columbia	MO	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. A stellar acoustic show by Cary Hudson and Mark Bilyeu with perfect sound quality. The highlight of the show is the portion of Cary's set with Mark sitting in, but it's a good time all around. Each set fits on one disc.

¤ Chris Hillman ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
10/15/76	Boarding House	San Francisco	CA	1 FLAC		notes		Sound is a little muffled, but it's a damn good time. Some nice countryish tunes from a fine band and a fine songwriter.
01/12/84	Rockefellers	Houston	TX	1 FLAC		notes		Great sound, and this is a really nice concert. Pretty mellow, and it's one of those all around good time shows of old bluegrass and country music.

¤ Chris Hillman & Herb Pederson ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
09/13/02	The Station Inn	Nashville	TN	1 FLAC		notes		If you're looking for some mellow and beautiful music, this is the stuff. A nice hour of bluegrass with gorgeous harmonies and songs, and some fine dobro work by Al Perkins. This is about as solid a show as you'll ever hear.

¤ Chris Robinson & the New Earth Mud ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
07/12/04	Uptown Theater	Kansas City	MO	1 SHN		notes		Opening act for Allman brothers. This show fits on the second SHN disc with the Allman Bros show, and has exactly the same sound quality.

¤ Cipollina-Gravenites Band ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
12/07/79	My Father's Place	Old Roslyn	NY	1 FLAC		notes	source	Some great pre-T&L stuff from John & Nick, as well as a few of Roger Troy's songs, with nearly perfect sound. It's a very nice show in general. Short but sweet.

¤ The Codetalkers ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
04/22/05	Mexicali Blues Cafe	Teaneck	NJ	2 CDR		notes	source	Great sound, and a fun show. Lots of guitar boogying, and lots of good vibes.

¤ Col. Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains ¤

http://www.c2b3.com/

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
09/13/02	Slim's	San Francisco	CA	1 SHN		notes		2 audio discs Wow! This band is absolutely delightful. Sound is really nice, and the performance rocks even harder than most of the Frog Brigade stuff I've heard.
09/14/02	Great American Music Hall	San Francisco	CA	1 SHN		notes		2 audio discs. Indeed, this one is three and a half times as good as the previous night's show in every which way.

¤  Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
02/18/75	Record Plant	Sausalito	CA	1 SHN		notes		No doubt about it, this is a very fun show. Goofy, entertaining, and only a little bit of hiss to cause any problems. Missing Oh Chechonia and Big River, though.

¤ Copperhead ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
01/23/72	Pacific High Recorders	Sausalito	CA	1 FLAC		notes	source	Sweeeeeet show with nearly perfect sound. The sound isn't as good as the 74 show in circulation, but IMHO the show is waaaaay better. You'll have to hear it to be sure.
12/16/72	Winterland	San Francisco	CA	1 CDR		notes		Sounds like it was ripped from a very old vinyl. Quality is deteriorated but listenable. John Cipollina's solos still sound great.
12/31/72	Diamond Head Center	Honolulu	HI	1 FLAC		notes	source	Pretty good soundboard recording, although it's deteriorated enough to notice. It's a short show by a hard to find band.
01/02/73	Diamond Head Center	Honolulu	HI	1 FLAC		notes	source	Much like the performance two nights earlier. The sound is a little better, although Rocket Ship is missing the beginning. It's another short show, though (12/31/72 and 1/2/73 will fit on one disc together).
11/30/73	Winterland	San Francisco	CA	1 FLAC		notes	source	The sound is a pretty clear soundboard, but the mix isn't always perfect. Of course, I can't complain when it's a SBD of Copperhead.
02/01/74	Longbranch	Berkeley	CA	1 FLAC		notes	source	There's some hiss here, and that's it. The music rocks my socks, especially an 18-minute Making A Monster.

¤ Country Joe & the Fish ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
02/14/68	Carousel Ballroom	San Francisco	CA	1 SHN		notes		A fun little show with only a little deterioration from the age of the recording. This is a very entertaining band, and a fun listen.

¤ CPR ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
07/31/00	B.B. King Blues Club	New York	NY	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. A good time and a pretty nice recording. Not perfect sound, but the good mood of the band and the great music make up for that.
07/10/01	Paradiso	Amsterdam	Netherlands	2 CDR		notes		I don't have a setlist, and the show is in three tracks (2 on one cd, 1 on the other). I don't know which is the first disc because it came unmarked other than artist & date.
07/20/01	P.zza Anfiteatro	Lucca	Italy	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. Great taping job, with only a little bit of low level crowd noise. This show just blew me away. These guys work quite amazingly together, and as always, Crosby writes some wonderful songs.
03/06/04	Keswick Theatre	Glenside	PA	1 SHN		notes		2 audio discs. It's a pretty relaxed show, which is cool. Lots of new songs, entertaining banter between songs, and so on. The sound is quite nice- noticeably an audience, but not so much that it gets in the way of listening.
03/13/04	Pollak Theatre - Monmouth University	West Long Branch	NJ	1 SHN		notes		2 audio discs. Another very nice taping job. You can tell it's an audience recording, but it's a nice show, and good sound. Crosby's certainly hit a peak in the past few years, and the entire band is playing quite well.

¤ Cream ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
08/26/67	Fillmore Auditorium	San Francisco	CA	1 SHN		notes		Other Nights Other Vaults vol 4 Like many other ONOV shows, the sound is pretty muddy, but the performance makes it all worth it. The band is practically on fire during this show. I think the show may have taken place on the 29th of August because the copy of the poster says Cream was there from Aug 29 through Sept 3rd (see poster scan at http://twtd.bluemountains.net.au/cream/fillmore67.htm). Just my two cents.
09/03/67	Fillmore Auditorium	San Francisco	CA	1 SHN		notes		Spectral analysis looks like all frequencies abover 10khz are gone (not mp3, but some sort of noise reduction. A side effect of the remaster, I guess). Sound is not quite as raw as I remember the original copy being, but still not easy to listen to. Good show, really rough sound. The nice thing about this show is the jams go on just long enough to entertain but they're not so long that they put you to sleep.
10/15/67	Grande Ballroom	Detroit	MI	2 CDR		notes		Sounds very nice, although the recording is a bit raw. An amazing performance on top of that. For more info on the performance see http://twtd.bluemountains.net.au/cream/grandeballroom.htm
03/03/68	Fillmore Auditorium	San Francisco	CA	1 SHN		notes		Like the 9/3/67 show, the remaster leaves the high frequencies out. Sound is better than 9/3/67, a little clearer, but far from perfect. As for the performance, it's a little different than usual, which makes it entertaining.
03/23/68	Shapiro Gym, Brandeis University	Waltham	MA	1 SHN		notes		2 audio Another one of those landmark shows, but bad bad sound. Although I guess I could do without eight and a half minutes of traintime.
10/04/68	Alameda County Coliseum	Oakland	CA	1 SHN		notes		Very common bootleg because it has some of the best sound quality of any Cream show out there. Sadly it's not as exciting as many other shows, but they're still one of the best bands ever, so it's a great bootleg. See http://twtd.bluemountains.net.au/cream/finalwest.htm for more info on the show.
10/26/05	Madison Square Garden	New York	NY	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. This is a much better recording than I thought it would be, considering how huge MSG is. This is a really cool show, too. Must have been a good time, seeing three old guys rock this hard.

¤ Creedence Clearwater Revival ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
08/18/69	Max Yasgur's Farm	Bethel	NY	1 CDR		notes		Very muddy sound, with the drums pumped up a lot, but you can still hear the vocals and guitar. Not bad to listen to.
07/04/71	Fillmore West	San Francisco	CA	1 CDR		notes		Pretty high treble, and the vocals are a little bit distant. Overall it's one of the better CCR shows I've heard.

¤ Crosby & Nash ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
10/04/71	Carnegie Hall	New York	NY	2 CDR		notes		Distant audience recording with lots of reverb. It doesn't sound very good. There are two filler tracks from 3/26/72 at the end.
12/04/71	Royal Festival Hall	London	England	2 CDR		notes		Pretty good audience recording. A little bit of hiss, and the sound is a tiny bit distant, but a pretty good performance overall.

¤ Crosby, Nash & Young ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
03/26/72	Winterland Arena	San Francisco	CA	1 CDR		notes		Killer setlist, FM broadcast, and great performance. Any fan of CSNY must have this show (even without Stills it's awesome).

¤ Crosby, Stills & Nash ¤

http://www.crosbystillsnash.com

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
11/22/77	The Summit	Houston	TX	2 CDR		notes		Starts off with some intense acoustic guitar playing by Stills, and just gets better and better. A lot of hiss though, and a few technical problems. They were, as always, an amazing band at this point.
11/26/82	Universal Amphitheatre	Universal City	CA	2 CDR		notes		The setlist on this copy is the same up until the end of disc one, and then it's quite different from etree. Sounds like this is a more complete version of the concert, but with less filler. The sound is great, and it's another fine performance by a great band. The vocals are particularly nice, since it's before any of them (Stills) began to really lose their voices, and they still play those guitars quite nicely.
11/28/82	Universal Amphitheatre	Los Angeles	CA	1 SHN		notes		Perfect sound, which rocks. The performance is also quite nice. Doesn't have too much of that overproduced 80's sound, and the band showcases each of their best talents in a really cool show. Croz doesn't show up on this cd all that much... I think this was that period when he was really messed up on drugs and such. A good show to listen to, though.
09/08/01	Smirnoff Music Center	Dallas	TX	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. This recording starts out quite nicely with very clear sound, but towards the end of disc one some people in front of the mic start getting a little rowdy and make tons of noise in the recording. I've heard worse, but I don't like hearing screaming fans when I'm listening to CSN. By Helplessly Hoping, they're pretty annoying, and by Wooden Ships it's almost unbearable. Aside from that, it's one of the better CSN performances I've heard, with some extremely hot solos by Stills and Finnigan.
04/03/03	Rushmore Plaza Civic Center	Rapid City	SD	2 CDR		notes		This is the best sounding recording from the 2003 tour I have heard so far. As always a great performance, and a very nice setlist with two great new Stills songs. There are some recording problems starting during the encores, but until then it's pretty much perfect.
09/06/03	Oakdale Theater	Wallingford	CT	2 CDR		notes		Sound is pretty distant and the bass is very heavy. It doesn't sound so bad most of the time, except when some people are screaming in the recording equipment.
09/09/03	Tweeter Center at the Waterfront	Camden	NJ	2 CDR		notes		This is obviously an audience recording, but not a bad one compared to the others I've heard from this tour. The sound is pretty distant, but the crowd noise not very loud. The entire band was just awesome during this tour. Performances all around rocked! They didn't play many new songs at this show, but everything they played was fantastic.
08/06/04	Oakdale Theater	Wallingford	CT	2 FLAC		notes		Once again, I say CSN are better since the millenium than they have EVER been! This show ROCKS so much! Sadly, there seem to be very few quality recordings of them these days. This one isn't bad, but it could be a lot better. Why aren't there any soundboards of the last few CSN tours???
06/18/05	Frognerparken	Oslo	Norway	2 CDR		notes		Much better sound than I've been used to from CSN auds in the past few years (this almost sounds like a soundboard). There's practically no audience noise and the sound is very clear, if trebly. The only downside is that it's a relatively short set, but they make up for that with some great musicianship (as always).

¤ Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
08/18/69	Max Yasgur's Farm	Bethel	NY	1 CDR		notes		Sounds great, even though it's missing more than half the set (did anyone record all those missing songs at all?). The band still sounds like they haven't played much together, but it's great stuff.
08/26/69	Greek Theatre	Los Angeles	CA	1 CDR		notes		Bring Me Gladness bootleg. Much better sound than the other source. The sound is still a little distant and it gets worse during the electric set, but that's about the only problem. The acoustic set has great vocals and quiet guitars. Great recording for early CSNY.
09/13/69	Esalen Institute	Big Sur	CA	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. This version is much better than the one I had before, mainly because the time between songs is set on different tracks. This is especially handy when there seem to be fights breaking out in the audience... I just don't want to listen to those. The acoustic set sounds okay for its age, though there are a few pops here and there.
06/03/70	Fillmore East	New York	NY	2 CDR		notes		Another nice soundboard from the 1970 leg of the tour. It sounds more deteriorated than the others I've heard, though, so it's not quite perfect. Filler on second disc from Roosevelt Raceway 9/8/74
06/04/70	Fillmore East	New York	NY	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. For show notes, see 6/5 and 6/6/70. They're all basically the same. Perfect sound, same nice performance.
06/05/70	Fillmore East	New York	NY	2 CDR		notes		Amazing sound, as good or better than 4 Way Street. The performance and setlist are even better, too. This is the version that is missing the first 4 songs, but everything else more than makes up for the missing songs.
06/06/70	Fillmore East	New York	NY	2 SHN		notes		3 audio discs. This is one of the best of the 1970 CSNY concerts that I've heard. The banter between songs is a little different from the others, it's the complete show (minus a bit of Love The One You're With), and it sounds great.
06/26/70	The Forum	Los Angeles	CA	1 CDR		notes		Slightly hissy sound, but it's another one of those Halverson Tapes recordings, so it's good. It still seems weird to me how all the recordings from 1970 seem to have nearly the same performances and the same between-song banter with only slight alterations. It's slightly disconcerting.
06/28/70	The Forum	Los Angeles	CA	1 CDR		notes		There are a few small dropouts in the recording, and it sounds pretty muffled. The bass during the electric part of the show is pretty heavy.
07/07/73	Winterland Arena	San Francisco	CA	1 CDR		notes		Tracks 1,3,9 have small dropouts at some point during each track, but for the most part they are relatively small. The performance quality makes up for that. One of the best CSNY bootlegs ever.
07/09/74	Seattle Center Coliseum	Seattle	WA	3 CDR		notes		After relistening many times, I've decided this recording isn't nearly as bad as I once thought it was. The bass is pretty heavy, as any audience recording usually is, and the vocals can be a little distant during the acoustic sets, but aside from that it really doesn't sound half bad. The performance isn't anything special compared to many other CSNY shows, but it's still CSNY.
07/13/74	Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum	Oakland	CA	3 CDR		notes		Pretty tinny sound, and the mix isn't exactly the best. Better than some recordings of the tour, but overall it's a little disappointing for a soundboard.
09/08/74	Roosevelt Raceway	Westbury	NY	3 CDR		notes		The sound for this show starts out great, but it goes downhill starting during the second disc as Stills and Young do their acoustic sets. The vocals get a lot more distant during this drop in quality, and it almost sounds like a switch from sbd to aud. The A- is for everything before the quality drop. Afterwards it's about B/B+
02/09/00	Arco Arena	Sacramento	CA	3 CDR		notes		Good sound quality but a little thin sounding, and a pretty nice show. A few digiclicks on Our House.
03/14/00	Phillips Arena	Atlanta	GA	3 CDR		notes		A few small moments of static between songs, but this is a great soundboard recording.
04/05/02	Compaq Center	San Jose	CA	3 CDR		notes		Slightly tinny sound, but a pretty good recording aside from that. Booker T Jones on keyboards. CSNY is in great form, and one of the better renditions of SJBE I've heard in a while.

10/24/70	Fillmore East	New York	NY	2 CDR		notes		I've had the official release compiled from these two shows for a few years now, and hearing the full shows is something I should have done a while ago. The sound is easily as good as the official release, and the performance rocks just as hard. This is definitely one of the best Clapton recordings ever.

¤ Dinosaurs ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
07/05/82	Marin County Fair	San Rafael	CA	1 FLAC		notes	source	A very cool dinosaurs show with slightly less than great soundboard quality. It's a short show, and there's some great jammming all throughout.
09/17/82	The Roxy	Hollywood	CA	1 FLAC		notes	source	2 audio discs. The sound is not that great for a soundboard, but it's good enough for a listen or two. The interplay between John and Nicky is really amazing! And Robert Hunter manages to pleasantly surprise me with every batch of songs he sings with the Dinosaurs.
12/31/82	Oakland Auditorium	Oakland	CA	1 SHN		notes	source	Very nice sound for such an old audience tape. A tiny bit tinny, but that's nothing to worry about. It's a great band and a great show, with lots of guests and lots of fun.
04/09/83	Kabuki Night Club	San Francisco	CA	2 FLAC		notes	source	While there are some parts of this show that get a little slow, there are also some of my favorite Dinosaurs moments at other points. Streetwise and Promontory Rider are amazing, the 21 minute Closer is tons of fun, and the six guest musicians really spice things up. It's a very fun show.
06/17/83	Keystone	Palo Alto	CA	1 FLAC		notes	source	Nice clear soundboard sound quality, with a fine performance. The mix is never entirely right, but this seems to be a problem with the soundboard (or the soundman, as Barry mentions during one of the talk tracks).
06/18/83	Phoenix Theater	Petaluma	CA	1 FLAC		notes	source	2 audio discs. It takes a little while for the mix to even out (sounds like they're adjusting it throughout the first two and a half songs), but once they get it, it's pretty much perfect sound.
07/14/83	Starry Night	Portland	OR	3 CDR		notes		The mix in this recording is a little muddy, just clear enough to hear the vocals and some nice solos. Cip's guitar is right up front most of the time, luckily. Of course, it's a very nice show. The last disc has some nasty sound like vinyl scratching.
09/17/83	Salt Air Pavillion	Salt Lake City	UT	1 FLAC		notes	source	2 audio discs. A pretty goofy show, if the ten minute Hokey Pokey is any indication. The sound is okay, though kind of muffled a lot of the time. David LaFlamme and John Cipollina spice up every song with some great violin and guitar jams.
10/15/83	Keystone	Palo Alto	CA	1 FLAC		notes	source	Not the best sound for a dinos show, but it's got some hot playing by the boys, and a really nice version of Mona.
01/28/84	Wolfgang's	San Francisco	CA	1 FLAC		notes	source	2 audio discs. For a soundboard recording, this isn't perfect, but the performance is way better than a lot of other Dinos recordings I've heard. The sound has a little distortion at loud parts, and some ever so slight tape deterioration. Like I said, though, the band rocks!
02/18/84	Keystone Palo Alto	Palo Alto	CA	2 FLAC		notes	source	Very good sound, once the mix gets set. It's a crazy performance, especially the second disc which is just full of wonderful jamming by everyone involved. Get this show!
03/02/84	Caberet	Cotati	CA	2 CDR		notes		Early & Late shows. The mix fluctuates a bit in the first few tracks. All in all, most of the instruments are very easy to hear and it's a great listen. Jennifer Albin and Nick Gravenites sing on a few songs.
07/15/84	Marx Meadow, Golden Gate Park	San Francisco	CA	1 FLAC		notes	source	2 audio discs. Nearly perfect sound (just a little distortion at the high levels) and a great show. This is one of the best sounding Dinosaurs shows I've heard, and the setlist and performance leave nothing to be desired. This is pretty much the best Hunter-era introduction to this band that I can think of.
07/04/85	California Acadamy Of Sciences, Steinhart Aqaurium	San Francisco	CA	2 CDR		notes		A little hissy and some instruments are quiet, but overall it's a pretty good recording.
07/04/85	California Acadamy Of Sciences, Steinhart Aqaurium	San Francisco	CA	1 DVD-R		notes		A pretty cool dvd, which is far more entertaining than the audio recording, I think. The only problem is there are several points in the recording where the VHS transfer must have been damaged, but those are relatively few.
10/31/87	Pine Street Theater	Portland	OR	1 FLAC		notes	source	A nice little nugget of late Dinosaurs. If the 24 minute Mona doesn't do it for you, I don't know what will. It's a fine soundboard recording, and a fun show.
05/14/88	KFOY TV	San Francisco	CA	1 CDR		notes		Very nice sound, if a little low on bass. It's a short and hot show! Last two tracks are filler from an unknown date and location: The Dance, Mona.

¤ Dire Straits ¤

Date	Venue	City	State	Count		Sound Quality	SHN Info	Notes
01/31/78	Polytechnic	Leeds	England	1 FLAC		notes		Great sound quality and a fun little performance, although Southbound Again fades out. The unreleased songs are pretty cool, especially Real Girl, but all in all, the whole show is quite nice.
02/16/79	WDR Studio L	Köln	Germany	1 SHN		notes		Some nice tunes from the first two albums, so you can't go wrong there. The spectral analysis of this boot looks a bit like mp3 or minidisc, but I've seen at least 4 versions of this show that all look the same, so I'll put it up here anyway. The sound is nearly flawless, and very clear.
03/03/79	The Bottom Line	New York	NY	1 SHN		notes		Another great sounding early Straits concert. As usual, not much jamming, but plenty of great tunes, including the unreleased Eastbound Train.
04/01/79	The Boarding House	San Francisco	CA	1 SHN		notes		On disc with 6/11/88 Almost perfect sound, and a nice performance. Nothing groundbreaking, but the Eastbound Train rarity is good to have. All in all it's worth having.
12/19/80	Westfalenhalle	Dortmund	West Germany	1 FLAC		notes		Great show with nearly perfect sound. The opening song, a ten minute Once Upon A Time is worth the disc by itself... everything else is just great!
06/29/81	Velodromo Vigorelli	Milano	Italy	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. How can you go wrong with the theme song from The Good, The Bad & The Ugly as the intro for the show? Sound is okay, just quite raw, but it rocks hard! By the end of disc one, I'm already wondering why the hell there aren't more recordings from this era out there? This is amazing music! Completely different than the Brothers In Arms or On Ever Street tour. This is real jazzy/improvisational stuff. And Telegraph Road! Amazing!
07/05/81	Werchter Festival	Brussels	Belgium	1 SHN		notes		2 audio discs. This is a pretty damn great show. This is the full show, audience and soundboard tracks. Most of the audience tracks sound nearly as good as the soundboards (SoS, PB, Where Do You Think You're Going, and Solid Rock sound nasty, but that's not a bad tradeoff for the quality of the rest of the songs).
12/13/82	De Montfort Hall	Leicester	England	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. The show starts with a strange but intriguing little intro, but it goes right into a great version of Once Upon A Time In The West. Knopfler's vocals are a little low, and you can tell it's an audience recording, but it's quite good for its age. There are a couple moments where it sounds like the tape got a little busted up, too. As for the show, this is a completely different Dire Straits than you hear at their peak. Great music, great soloing, and lots of songs that they never play anymore! And everything on here that you hear later in their career sounds completely different! It rocks! And they play all of the Love Over Gold album!
05/18/83	Stadthalle	Vienna	Austria	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. For an early 80's audience recording, this has fantastic sound! Clear as glass, and only a little audience noise. As for the show, it's the early Dire Straits sound that I love so much. This is the era before they were completely over the top, and they sounded fantastic! All sorts of rare songs, including that one you never hear- Twisting By The Pool- and different arrangements. That synth! Whoah! This is a great show. My only complaint, why the hell does the audience clap along with the song when it's as slow as Private Investigations or Romeo + Juliet? They're not clap-along songs!
07/10/85	Wembley Arena	London	England	1 SHN		notes		A very nice soundboard recording with stereo sound. There are a few very small ticks here and there, though. It's a short and very very sweet performance.
08/05/85	Blossom Music Center	Cuyahoga Falls	OH	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. Generally great sound, though there are a few little warts here and there. The show is one of those classics from the BIA tour... you should have this. Illsley is particularly good during this show, too. Yay bass!
08/17/85	Southern Star Amphitheatre	Houston	TX	2 CDR		notes		There is a more complete version of this show, but this one is quite nice. Great sound (except for a very light vinyl popping if you listen carefully on disc 2), and a great show, as always. Well worth repeated listening.
04/26/86	Entertainment Center	Sydney	Australia	2 SHN		notes		Great show! The crowd is noisy, but never too bad. See Tech Notes for MD5 info.
06/11/88	Wembley Stadium	London	England	1 SHN		notes		Clapton & Knopfler are right up front in the mix and it's an amazing performance. The best recording of Brothers In Arms I've heard so far. On disc with 4/1/79
08/23/91	The Point Depot	Dublin	Ireland	2 CDR		notes		While the sound is a little distant and there is some distinct audience noise during some of the songs, this is without a doubt one of my two favorite recordings from this tour. The setlist is very different from the rest of the tour, including rare songs such as Iron Hand, Portobello Belle, Setting Me Up, and The Long Highway, which all rock quite nicely. The playing and improvisation is fantastic, as well. I wish Knopfler played around with his setlist like this more often, because this is just delightful.
09/18/91	Wembley Arena	London	England	2 CDR		notes		Spectral analysis shows very low frequencies above 10k, so you might want to be wary of this recording. On the other hand, the sound isn't too bad (mostly just a bit hissy and tinny-there's barely any audience noise at all), and the performance is WILD! Planet Of New Orleans, Setting Me Up, and Tunnel Of Love are all wicked fun, not to mention all of the more commonly performed songs.
10/03/91	Palais Omnisports de Bercy	Paris	France	2 CDR		notes		Not very good sound, but this show is way more intense than most of the other shows I've heard from this tour!
02/23/92	Continental Airlines Arena	East Rutherford	NJ	2 CDR		notes		The sound quality here is at the low end of pretty good (if that means anything to you), but.... holy crap! Planet Of New Orleans is amazing when played like this, and I Think I Love You Too Much rocks! So, to elaborate, the sound quality leaves a little bit to be desired, and the performance quality is fantastic. The guitar improvisations are especially nice all over this show.
06/05/92	Earl's Court	London	England	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. The original bootleg underwent some noise reduction, but it's very subtle, and the sound quality is still VERY good. And holy crap! The performance is right up there with the Basel show, and this version of Telegraph Road may even rival the intensity of that one, except that the last two minutes are missing. Overall, it's another amazing show!
06/28/92	St. Jacob Stadium	Basel	Switzerland	2 CDR		notes		This is probably my favorite Dire Straits recording, if not my favorite recording by any band. The sound is crisp and smooth, just perfect. The songs are superb and they just take my breath away every time I hear them. And, of course, there's a great pedal steel added to the usual fantastic Dire Straits sound. Missing Theme From Local Hero.
06/28/92	St. Jacob Stadium	Basel	Switzerland	1 SHN		notes		Not nearly as good as the full show. Left channel is a little fuzzy, the recording is missing some great songs, and portions of others. On the other hand, what's here is still a fantastic performance. All the banter between songs has been edited out of this one.
07/16/92	Alsterdorfer Sporthalle	Hamburg	Germany	2 CDR		notes		Great sound for an audience recording of this tour, very close to soundboard quality except for a little badly placed static and clicking. The performance is very similar to the soundboards from this tour, except for the inclusion of two amazing songs (When It Comes to You, and Tunnel Of Love). If anyone has a clean copy of this recording without the static and clicks, I'd love to hear it.
09/29/92	Les Arenes	Nimes	France	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discsc. Another of the amazing sounding OES soundboards. This one has another phenomenal Telegraph Road, tons of great solos, and my favorite performance of Money For Nothing- it just keeps rocking on and on and on. This is a wild show.
??/??/92	Unknown	Unknown	Europe	2 CDR		notes		This recording came to me at 2/2/92, but that is obviously wrong. As far as I can find, the only difference between this recording and the On Every Planet bootleg is that "On Every Street" is split into two tracks, and Going Home is missing. On Every Street may not have been a great Dire Straits album, but the tour to support it was fantastic! This is a very solid show, with only a few problems.

08/14/75	The Fabulous Forum	Inglewood	CA	1 SHN		notes		2 audio discs. Pretty cool show, especially the jamming with Keith Moon and Carlos Santana, but the sound leaves a little bit to be desired. It's not too bad, just a little muddy. Good times, though.
04/27/77	Hammersmith Odeon	London	England	1 SHN		notes		2 audio discs. Good sound quality, and a nice performance.
02/03/89	Royal Albert Hall	London	England	3 CDR		notes		Pretty hot show! Perfect sound, and two of the best guitarists ever. I still think the Dire Straits 6/11/88 show is a better example of them, but this is longer, so it gets extra points. And there are some very rocking solos here. Filler comes from the Unplugged show, I think.
05/21/01	Philips Arena	Atlanta	GA	2 SHN		notes		Great sound quality. I can't say I'm a huge fan of his newer songs, but the old ones are nice. A good show for Clapton fans.

08/06/83	Fresno Saloon	San Francisco	CA	2 CDR		notes		Vocals are very quiet, but the instruments come through very nicely. There's a bit of hiss, and a little deterioration. The musicianship is great, as always with these guys. Missing Juan Coronna and Dinosaur. No QMS filler.
09/15/84	Ruthie's Inn	Berkeley	CA	1 FLAC		notes	source	2 audio discs. There's some hiss, but everything else sounds fine. A nice setlist, and some fine musicianship. The second set is particularly hot.
09/26/85	New Georges	San Rafael	CA	1 FLAC		notes	source	2 audio discs. Another of those nice shows where Cipollina is in very good form, doing some very nice solos and great sound. Almost all of Mona is missing, sadly, but everything else is a delight.
01/15/87	O.T. Price's Music Hall	Santa Cruz	CA	1 FLAC		notes	source	2 audio discs. A very solid show. John's guitar volume fluctuates a bit, so it's not always easy to hear him, but the show is very fun to listen to as a whole. Great band, good crowd, etc.
11/21/87	Full Moon Saloon	San Francisco	CA	1 FLAC		notes	source	2 audio discs (barely). Super hot show! Cip, Albin, and Douglass are very "on" this night, and the sound and mix are nearly perfect. There are a few minutes between some songs with just tuning and banter, but when the songs get going, they rock very hard.
04/29/88	Full Moon Saloon	San Francisco	CA	1 FLAC		notes	source	2 audio discs. The sound is nearly perfect - just a bit of background noise in the soundboard recording. As for the performance... the boys play nicely as always, but the guests (especially McDonald) really dominate this show. If you like Kathi McDonald a lot, you'll probably like this.
05/13/89	The Saloon	San Francisco	CA	1 CDR		notes		Aside from something that sounds like lots of vinyl pops, the sound quality is pretty good. A nice soundboard recording, and some fine performances by everyone. This might be only half of the show, though.

02/19/04	Starland Ballroom	Sayreville	NJ	2 SHN		notes	source	3 audio discs. Very energetic show, and it doesn't get boring after three hours.

03/13/73	Ultrasonic Studios	Hempstead	NY	1 CDR		notes		Perfect sound, and an amazing country rock show. It's better than perfect sound, actually. And it's a really cool show.

02/09/73	Roscoe Maples Pavilion, Stanford University	Palo Alto	CA	2 SHN		notes	source	3 audio discs. Very nice soundboard recording, with just a few problems with adjusting levels in the beginning, then switching tapes throughout the performance. All in all, it's a very nice show.
03/18/77	Winterland Arena	San Francisco	CA	2 SHN		notes	source	3 audio discs. I thought I didn't like the Dead, but I guess this show's proved me wrong. Wow! It's crazy! The band is just so together on this show, it almost sounds like it couldn't possibly be GD. But it is! And it's GOOD!

04/13/69	Matrix	San Francisco	CA	2 CDR		notes		Very nice sound, though some of the vocals are very quiet. Most of the show is instrumentals, though, so it's not a problem.
07/22/69	The Matrix	San Francisco	CA	2 SHN		notes		Normally when I have two hours of jamming to listen to, I zone out and don't pay attention to it. This show is mostly jamming, and it's REALLY good. A little hissy, but nothing that detracts from the fun. Joey Covington and Jack Casady really sound great here, not to mention the Kaukonen bros.
12/31/70	Winterland Arena	San Francisco	CA	1 CDR		notes		Pretty raw sound, but it's very good. The bass gets pretty heavy at points. It's a very fun show, and everyone seems to be in high spirits.
03/03/71	Chateau Liberte	Santa Cruz	CA	1 CDR		notes		Mix jumps around a bit, but mostly the vocals and violin are so up front you can't hear the guitar. The recording is very clean, though, so this would be good if you like just listening to Papa John and not much else.
07/03/71	Fillmore West	San Francisco	CA	2 CDR		notes		This is probably one of the best Tuna recordings I know of. Great sound, and a fantastic document of their Burgers era sound. If you want a good place to start listening to Hot Tuna, I think this is it.
04/03/72	Carnegie Hall	New York	NY	1 SHN		notes	source	Jorma's guitar is pushed pretty far back in the mix. Everything else sounds fine. For me, though, the lack of any sound from the lead guitar just kills the recording.
10/02/73	Winterland Arena	San Francisco	CA	1 SHN		notes		2 audio discs. Very nice soundboard recording. Early acoustic show with many very nice renditions of now classic Tuna songs. There are lots of very little clicks, though.
05/08/74	SUNY Gym	Stony Brook	NY	2 FLAC		notes	source	3 Audio discs. Aside from a few very minor flaws, the sound is perfect. As for the performance, just listen to the first disc and you'll know why Jorma and Jack are two of the best musicians ever, and then you've still got two more discs after that. It's an amazing show.
04/05/75	Civic Center	San Francisco	CA	2 SHN		notes	source	3 audio discs. A great mix, though there is a buzz in the background during most of the songs that you can only hear when the music is quiet. There are also a few songs, starting on disc 2, that have a little residual sound of hiss removal (or at least that's what it sounds like to me, since I've tried that once or twice). Someone probably tried to get rid of the buzz, and left an even more annoying sound, though you can only really hear it on headphones. As for the show, Jack, Jorma and Greg make quite an amazing band, and this is a great example of this incarnation of the group.
04/27/75	Whitman Auditorium	Brooklyn	NY	2 FLAC		notes	source	3 audio discs. A very very nice performance! As always. Greg Douglass rocks quite nicely on that slide guitar, and Jack is in very nice form this night. The sound is a bit distant, and the vocals are very low, but the bass is nice and loud.
05/02/75	Harpur College	Binghampton	NY	2 FLAC		notes	source	Missing Police Dog Blues, and Funky #7 has been moved up to after Easy Now. The sound quality is a little hissy/muddy, and there are a few tracks where one or both guitars drop out for a while. Greg Douglass and Jorma sure have some great guitar interplay in these shows, and it's fun to hear.
07/19/75	Convention Hall	Asbury Park	NJ	2 FLAC		notes		3 audio discs. This is a good show, but I don't think it's from the date it says it is, and the setlist that came with it is slightly wrong. That aside, the sound quality is quite nice, and Douglass & Kaukonen do some great guitar playing, especially on the 10 minute I Know You Rider. CRAZY!
10/24/75	Palace Theatre	Albany	NY	3 CDR		notes		Very nice taping job. There seem to be some veeeery quiet clicks here and there, but it might be my imagination. The music is loud and clear enough to drown those out. The music... it's nice. Electric Hot Tuna can be hit and miss, depending on the band and on the listener, but this one is way up there in terms of performance. In fact, this may be one of my favorite electric Tuna shows. It even sounds like most of the tuning between songs has been edited out without clipping any chatter or song ends.
11/22/75	Academy of Music	New York	NY	3 FLAC		notes		4 audio discs. Four wonderful hours of loud, electric Tuna. The sound is great for an audience (I'm pretty sure it's an audience recording), and the performance is up to the usual standards of Tuna quality.
05/02/76	The Tower Theatre	Upper Darby	PA	1 CDR		notes		A perfect recording and a great show. Only problem is that it doesn't match the md5 on etree.
09/11/76	Long Island Arena	Commack	NY	4 CDR		notes		Vocals sound tinny, but the instruments are great. 4 and a half hours of great Hot Tuna. There is one dropout during the tuning track for about five seconds, but it doesn't interrupt anything important.
11/26/76	The Palladium	New York	NY	2 CDR		notes		Partial set from radio broadcast, but that means awesome sound quality. Another fantastic Tuna show. Last three tracks are from the next night's performance, I think (Hot Jelly Roll Blues, Baby What You Want Me To Do, Talkin' About You).
05/28/77	Santa Clara Univ.	Santa Clara	CA	2 SHN		notes		3 audio discs. Aside from the half hour of tuning that could have been cut out, this show is Faaaaaaantastic. As always. Pretty durned good sound, and some cool cool songs. The long rendition of Drivin' Around is great. I don't know why they don't play this more often these days, but then again, I guess anything they do sounds great, so rock on.
11/25/77	Palladium	New York	NY	3 CDR		notes		Late show only, but acoustic and electric sets. With Nick Buck and Bob Steeler. Sound quality is nearly perfect. d1t13 is cut off for the last two minutes. There are three filler tracks on disc 3, I don't know where from: I See The Light, I Can't Be Satisfied, and Drivin' Around
01/23/88	Jannus Landing	St. Petersburg	FL	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. This is a very nice little radio show that pretty much puts you right in the room with Jack & Jorma. Good stuff. Also included in the two discs are a Jorma solo set and a Jorma trio set from the same radio station in 1986 and 1999. The best thing about this show (the Tuna one) is that Jack doesn't shut up the whole time. The two Jorma sets are quite nice as well.
12/07/89	The Chance	Poughkeepsie	NY	2 FLAC		notes		3 audio discs. A damn fine recording, and a pretty hot show. A full band plus Peter Kaukonen on second guitar makes for a pretty nice sounding show, and this one has quite a setlist as well. Good stuff!
12/08/00	Mystic Theatre	Petaluma	CA	1 SHN		notes	source	2 audio discs. Flawless recording of a very nice Acoustic Hot Tuna show. These guys just keep getting better!
12/01/02	Bardavon Opera House	Poughkeepsie	NY	1 SHN		notes	source	2 audio discs. First Hot Tuna show I attended. Great show and great audience recording.
11/30/03	Bardavon Opera House	Poughkeepsie	NY	1 FLAC		notes	source	The volume on Jack's bass is pretty low until the beginning of Waiting For A Train, but this is because of the sound system, not the recording equipment. It was a very fun show, and it's a VERY clear recording. Barry Mitterhoff adds a lot to the sound of the acoustic duo, and they jammed out very nicely on most songs.
01/09/04	Fox Theatre	Boulder	CO	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. A very fine recording and a nice show. I'll never get tired of any kind of Hot Tuna, especially the acoustic stuff with Barry. Holy crap!
01/10/04	Aggie Theater	Fort Collins	CO	1 FLAC		notes	source	2 audio discs. There's some low level audience noise throughout the show, but damn it's a fine show! Each instrument is very easy to hear, which rocks. The guys sound like they're having a good time during and between the songs. It's a fun show. d2t03 has some electric noise in the beginning.
02/06/04	Rialto Theater	Tucson	AZ	1 FLAC		notes	source	2 audio discs. Levels are quite low, and when the audience makes noise you can hear it pretty loud. The show is nice, as always with these guys.
07/19/04	Newburyport High School	Newburyport	MA	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. This is a beautiful recording of a great show. The bass is a little heavy, but since it's Jack, that's fine by me! The only "problem" is that a lot of the talking between songs is at the beginning of tracks. Not a big deal, since the guys seem to be in high spirits and having a good time. This is now one of my favorite Tuna shows... one of many.
11/19/04	Esplanade Park	Fort Lauderdale	FL	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. Perfect sound quality, and goddamn if this isn't a fantastic show! There's just nothing that can come close to a good electric Tuna show, and this one is a nice 100 minutes of wonderful noises.
11/28/04	Bardavon 1869 Opera House	Poughkeepsie	NY	2 FLAC		notes		This concert was the high point of the year for me. UNBELIEVABLE! And a fantastic recording, too! Kudos to Rob Clarke for that. And thanks to Jack & Jorma, Barry and Erik for such a rocking show. A fine time!
01/16/05	Skipper's Smokehouse	Tampa	FL	2 FLAC		notes		Nice sound in a barroom atmosphere. The setlist for the acoustic set is pretty cool, with 99 Year Blues instead of Good Shepherd, and nice long jams on most of the songs. The electric set, like others from this tour, is mind blowing. Bow Legged Woman, Knock Kneed Man rocks the house right off its foundations.
01/27/05	The Tralf	Buffalo	NY	2 FLAC		notes		3 audio discs. Another fantastic performance, both acoustic and electric. The sound leaves nothing to be desired, either. The shows from this tour are just mind bogglingly good!
07/15/05	The Stone Pony Landing	Asbury Park	NJ	1 FLAC		notes		2 audio discs. An entire show with the electric band... this rocks! Not only is the setlist crazy and the musicianship astounding as always, but Rob Clarke's recordings are always very nice. There's a bit more audience nosie in this show than usual, but it only adds to the fun.
07/22/05	Newburyport High School	Newburyport	MA	2 CDR		notes		Another great acoustic show, with a rare performance of Mann's Fate to round it out. Good sound, and all around good listening.
11/26/05	Beacon Theatre	New York	NY	3 CDR		notes		As if last year's acoustic/electric tour wasn't damn good enough, this one just goes to show that these guys are pretty much the tighest and most exciting act out there. The acoustic set is fun and laid back, the electric set rocks harder than ever. The sound is quite nice as well.
11/27/05	Bardavon 1869 Opera House	Poughkeepsie	NY	2 FLAC		notes		3 audio discs. Somehow, this is even better than the previous year's show. Tuna and the Bardavon go together quite well, and thanks to Rob Clarke's stellar taping job, this recording is up there among the best Tuna shows I've heard.
