This is a highly enjoyable show, probably one of the best of the whole 1977 North American tour. This is the next night after the famous "Destroyer" bootleg (27th), which is renouned for the sound quality of one of the first ever bootlegged SBDs...this show (28th) however comes from a very good audience source, but it is plagued with its fair share of problems. The taper paused his recorder in between songs in order to preserve tape, which means alot of plantations were left out...even with the taper's efforts to conserve tape a few songs were left cut most notably in a electifying version of In My Time Of Dying, which cuts out and back in at the very end. Also the tape suffers from ALOT of hiss which is most likely due to the fact that no EQ'ing has been done on the tape and the nature of the recording. This combined with the fact that it is a very loud recording means it will place alot of strain on one's ears....but faults put aside this is truely a fantastic show with highlights being excellent versions of In My Time Of Dying, No Quarter (includes the rare Nutrocker jam), Kashmir, and a devastating Achilles Last Stand. The atmosphere of the show is best described by the comments of an audience member (maybe the taper) who really adds a level of intimacy to this recording. When all is said and done this is a MUST HAVE show, enjoy
