But for sure it comes from the same source! Tracks 1-7, 10 (only after the tape flip), 11-18 were slowed down -30 cts. Tracks 8-10 had speed problems due to battery failure, all fixed perfectly by our wizard pitch Flambay (pitch bend -30cts to -200 cts)!
Bohac (4/0) / 0 A- View  
Notes: The beginning couple of songs are real hot, as is the encore (Bamboozled). There's nothing overly special about the singing-intensive songs, but the intermittent guitar solos are nice, though again nothing overly long-lasting nor particularly jaw dropping. Solid overall.
