Sound quality rating given is due to the drums being somewhat back in the mix compared to the other instruments. Some have it that the original taper feigned inability to walk and entered the venue with a reel-to-reel recorder, powered by a car battery, secreted in his wheechair! However it was done, the recording is well balanced with all the players and instruments present. Many consider it one of the best audience recordings from the 1970s. The recording itself is somewhat legendary. After the smoke clears one nearby fan can be heard exclaiming 'Pete city, Pete city!' The band is in excellent form and is nothing but fierce throughout the show - the effects that Pete achieves during 'Sparks' alone are almost frightening. This fine recording captures the band blasting through the standard set of this tour with aplomb and finesse. 223)Īnyone who saw and heard the band during this period can attest to the energy, fire, and volume of their performances. 'After two years of relative inactivity by The Who's normal standards, the group bounced back in the second half of 1975, firing on all cylinders,' wrote Joe McMichael and 'Irish' Jack Lyons in The Who Concert File, 'Many fans still consider that The Who's rebirth in 1975/76 represented some of their finest moments.'

(Tangerinedreamer, July 2003) The second encore is the great 'Mothers of Rain' and I like this early version even better than the one which can be found on the 'Optical Race' CD. The music is pretty much identical to that of Laguna Hills (Tangerine Tree 24), except that TD left out the 'Pilots of Purple Twilight' introduction, and that they played 'Cool Breeze of Brighton' (also known as 'Vermillion Sands') insted of 'Ride on the Ray'.

I had another Birmingham tape of lesser sound quality, and it was there too. This is part of the recording, not something that occured during the remastering.

Great sound quality except for a minor background noise which you can hear on the more quieter passages.
