Written by halbie

The sound quality of this release is fine and the performance stellar.  This is 80s KC as a belting-it-out rock band with more energy on display than any of the other 1980s recordings that I have of them.

If you’re an audiophile, then the sound might put you off, but you can download a sample for free to make that decision.

I’m generally picky about sound quality of live recordings, and this easily meets my standards for adequacy, especially for an archival release.

The sound check should be retitled to "Esoterica Humorosa"

Subjective Background: As an “under 40” Crimhead, this was the 1st version of the band that I heard and nothing was the same after that day. (For me, that day was in the week before Christmas in 1984 and I Read more

Dont let the previous review scare you when it comes to sound.  Maybe my ears are war torn from so many years of bootlegs but this is pretty darn good sound for a show that is almost 24 years Read more

Dodgy audio, but engaging performance   Thu., May 18, 2006

The stars are strictly for the performance on this. It isn’t the worst of the official boots, that distinction belongs to the Ft Lauderdale take on the Collins-Wallace-Burrell and Fripp KC, but it isn’t very good Read more
