★★★★ · Not as bad as some suggest · NYLifer · 2007
I've only listened to the the first 2 songs so far, but GMLS is energized and Rag is fine. the first solo in Rag is a little reserved, but I hear hints of GDTRFB/AWBYGN jam there. Not the the best, far from the worst GD ever. 4 stars for being new to me 1969 GD. The end of Rag is rough, but it's still 4 stars.
★★★★ · Definately not the worst · candymanan · 2004
This show is not so bad. It sounds nice and while there is some sloppyness, there are also some real great jams. They boys are not totally groovin' through out this one, but it is still worth a quick download to hear some good sound quality and some good tunes
