The review

Here is the 2nd show in San Francisco, all available versions were coming from the same source, the one used was part 2 of Solo City (no label) because it was running at a more correct speed than the other one which was 3,36% slower and also because it contained the first part of Room To Move. Some microgaps were deleted as well as a digital noise between the tracks; as usual the transitions between tracks have been reworked.

Note a fade in/out after Somebody’s Acting Like A Child but no music has been lost and that only the first part of Room To Move was recorded. This is a strange recording, taken from the audience but pretty unbalanced, the taper aimed at Taylor’s amp so we can clearly listen to the guitar but vocals and the other instruments are quite low in the background, however this is bonanza for Taylorites!
