The 1968 Jeff Beck Group tour in the States continued in Los Angeles and volume four of this series covers the band’s Shrine Exposition Hall show; all available versions were the same as the Empress Valley release Messin’ With The Blues (EVSD 489/491). This recording is a very good testimony but, unfortunately, it’s lossy and saturated in some parts. Not much could be done against this but the transitions between tracks were reworked and some micro-gaps deleted as well as de-clicked the whole recording. Note a fade in/out after Hi Ho Silver Lining and 20 seconds nearly without music in Let Me Love You. The sound output is slightly better than on the original EVSD set, however the band plays really well on this show.
