This release presents onve again the 2^nd show in Hamburg from 1973.

This concert was released at first on vinyl with 3 tracks on The Stars in the Sky Never Lie (Caution 197/810-11), 2 songs appeared on Jean Clarke Memorial Sonic Barbecue (TAKRL 1919), 2 songs on Sonic Barbecue (Beacon Island 25717), 3 songs on A German Affair (TMOQ-92), 2 on Tour Over Germany 1973 (TSP 300-36), 1 song is on Radio Caroline (27444 A/B).

On compact it came out on cdr on Satisfaction, Hamburg 73 Tapes, which offered both shows and then on Hamburg 73 Oct. 2, 2^nd show. On silver discs then The Stars in the Sky Never Lie (VGP-ASTS 19781) in 2005 presented the full concert although three songs were cut and one was incomplete; 2 songs can be found on The Jean Clarke Memorial Sonic Barbecue (VGP 246) and on   The Stars in the Sky Never Lie (Midnight Beat 141), 1 song on Reflection of a Stone Alone (VGP 043) and 2 on The Stars in the Sky They Never Lie (DAC 100); 2 songs are found on Best of Europe 73 (Hot Lips 003 3505). Recording of this concert can also be found on Give Me A Hamburger cdr in bad quality. In 2003 came out The German Affair (PGN 046) that had a complete recording from the same source as Stars in the Sky (VGP-Asts 19781) but offering a lower generation and in 2010 3 tracks were featured on 1973 Tour (WLR 2135) 13 cd and 1 DVD box. In 2018 was then released Hamburger Concerto (Tarantura TCDRS 49-1,2) together with the first show, but there are some doubts on the origin of Disc Two; it was followed in 2020 by The Complete Hamburg Tapes 1973 (DAC 193) that had a mono recording and in 2023 The Stars in the Sky They Never Lie (No Label) that had also a rip of the vinyl version tracks.

This recording here starts quite bad with Brown Sugar quite saturated and with the usual low fidelity provided by the venue itself, it seems, however this won’t be regarded as the find of the year. 2 stereo tracks from the vinyl version have been added at the end. Packaging is nice as usual for these kind of releases; the audio quality is questionable though since usually vocals and lead instruments (guitar, sax) are clearly audible but all the rest is a saturated mud. If only the full source used for the vinyl releases would be available that would be an improvement!
