The review
The eight volume of this series is the first concert in Cambridge, all versions of this show were identical. The recording is now de-clicked, the sound refocused and the transitions reworked.
The recording stops during the applause after Got My Mojo Working; Big Boss Man might have been played but was either not recorded or has it been left off the circulating recording? The answer is unknown. In particular on Sweet Little Angel-Love Me Or I'll Kill You Baby some noises in the banter were deleted, on Sweet Home Chicago at the end of the song the sound had some flaws (probably coming from the end of the tape used) and there was a gap before the next track. On Baby What You Want Me To Do note a gap before the next track. This is one of the best audience recordings of a Taylor show, crisp and clear with all instruments audible as well as vocals.
