I didn't know about the Spirit Rainbow album, Ian. I was there. Will try not to go too overboard about that night, suffice to say that I still have my ticket. What's the sound quality/vibe like?


I think that makes three of us on HH who were there that night. Just goes to reinforce my theory that the outsider rock audience was always fairly small. Just as it is today. Although it is a slight exageration it really was the same people going to everything that mattered.

I had the original lp too and have bought a couple of the cd versions since. Rest assured this is the best release of that show by a country mile. The audio is fantastic considering the source and the vibe is strong becasue you are hearing it as-it-happened without the original overdubs.

The only thing wrong with the release is the filling up of disc two with the American version of the original album with the extra over-dubs and studio tracks that were not on the UK album. Why bother when you have the real thing?
