I can tell you we have the BEST possible quality source here,
since i had directly connection to the guy-s who discoverd the tapes.
(well...that was back in mid 1990!!:-)
The "merge" of the three different sources was made by the great M.Motoclassica
This a bit of time ago.(2000?)....old computer-s time! 233mhz!!

I'm sure someone can do a better job with nowadays software.(do it if you can!)
But the guy did a great effort finding every single different-s in every source-s.
(For instance ,The Foxy lady's solo was only recorded in source 1 and blah blah blah..
the third have better sound but it's incomplete and so on..)
He re-create a rough STEREO version....nice to be listen to!!;-)

Also we had big Tape speed problems too!!!,... floating around....
(in Red House you'll hear quite well..)

The original tapes were recorded:
Two on a GELOSO Taperecorder and the other (i think) in a k7 Philphs.
GELOSO tape deck (Italian stuff)had a so strange recording head that only another GELOSO
can actually play the tape.......

Talkin about the gig.
He was very late, the supporting bands had to play a whole hour more, waitin the man....
Jimi was found in some fan's house singing the old Fats Waller song "The joint is jumpin!!!.....:-)"
...so he was a bit stoned....

Plus there was a tremendous electrical trouble ,
Marshall amps were blowing up the mainfuses of the place .
( a 3500 sport-seat arena!!!)
Maybe one of the reason was we had 125 volts back then in Italy!!!
So,Jimi was forced to play with only one amp ,settled at mid power (not ten!!)
without any pedal or other tricks......(maybe only in the last numbers,,,,)

He sometimes apologize with the crowd, FOxy lady was the latest single here
and people keep asking the song....but, you know, it was a hard task to do
with no feedback behind you.......he did it at  the very last moment.
( -i'm gonna do foxy lady, but aint' gonna work!!-)

Due low tickets selling , second show was cancelled and Jimi went to jam in a Club,
where he was (maybe) filmed and recorded....but this is another story!!!

Ok folks, enjoy this recording, and dont sell it to any japanese Boot company!!!
otherwise You will die soon as possible(ASAP)
(but in a nice  way!!)

Ciao
