23.08.2009 11:24		 I can confirm it's indeed from Okayama, as Freddie mentions the city before Father to son, which was thus played. Fantastic news.

Sounds gets rated as Good,  Very good minus but I find it to be very enjoyable :-) (after having listened to only a small bit).

23.08.2009 11:25		 Must say, sounds pretty clear but not so punchy. I'm so happy  with this new addition to the collection:-)

cassette > wav > flac

Anyone knows if this comes from the master or from unknown gen. tape?

23.08.2009 11:36		 I'm sending a PM to the sharer at tapecity if he wants me to share it here and if yes I'll torrent it:-)

"How are you doing? We are doing fine, the nasty Queenies are going to entertain you tonight with some good hard rock and roll..."

Any seventies Queen is pure gold :-)

Funny comment indeed!

It's also funny to hear the guy in crowd having the time of his life...

You're faster, I just started with Son And Daughter ;) But good to know, disc 1 is also pretty hissy, so disc 2 must sound really bad :)

A better quote would be
How are you doing ? We are Doing Alright, Let the nasty Queenies to entertain you tonight with some modern times rock and roll

Instruments are all clearly heard. Maybe a bit bass heavy. But not a bad recording at all...

Haven't listened to disc 2 yet...

It's indeed very hissy on disc 1 but disc 2 is also less clear and even more hissy:-)

Nah.. Freddie was way too cool to make such a nerdy comment.
No offence.

Yes, this is a nice example how can a recording like Boston 76 raise your quality standards :) Before listening to that one I would rate this recording as "VG+"

Yeah, if we're going to make Boston'76 the standard we can better stop collecting:-)
