I guess the primary reason why I bought this one was because of the lower price, and it’s not that bad of a show. It’s just not anything great or essential - there are plenty more concerts available from the Mark II lineup that are of better sound quality and/or better performances. My biggest critique is that the "punters" (as the Brits might say) are a bit loud and distracting, especially since Crimso opted for a bit of a mellower set - half of the tracks are quieter pieces, and the playing on the others is a bit restrained It’s perfectly listenable, as long as you have "bootleg adjusted ears," and I firmly believe that you can’t own enough versions of Sailor’s Tale, but as I said before, not essential (unless you are running out of allowance money and want to save a few bucks)
