Audience 9.6 - Do you want to hear the pinnacle of what can be done recording from the audience? Here it is. Even the staunchest soundboard purist would be hard-pressed to thumb this down. Outstanding, simply put.

Soundboard 9.5 - A great addition to anyone's collection. It features Steve Vai on guitar, who was part of Franks "Rockin' Teenage Combo" from approx 1980 - 82. -
New York 1978 Audience 9.3 - What a wild, out of control ride this is! Not only perhaps one of the most engaging live Kinks bootleg recording (or at least in the top 5), It also may just be one of THE coolest bootleg audience recording of any band. Why? Why such praise? It captures an intangible quality, that thing you can’t accurately describe with words…it’s a statement of sorts. We have a foundation rock band (first British wave) who have always been sort of disregarded but who refuse to pack it in, and here is why. These guys were punk before punk was a thought, and here they are a decade and change removed from their 60’s heyday, playing the birth place of US punk and they STILL can out punk the punks. Brilliant! Magical. A MUST! Buffalo 1978 Audience 8.7 - A very clear recording, good solid mid range and leaning toward emphasis on the high end which gives cymbals the little bit of crispiness that makes them heard and not washed out. Drums are highlighted and have a great sound too.

Osaka 2019 SDBRD 9.4 - This is how you do it if you want to become rock stars. I don’t mean the performance, I mean record yourself and let the tape out so you get bootlegged. Anyway, it’s Led Zeppelin 2.0 for the uninitiated. -

Pro Radio Broadcast 9.1 - Legendary WCBN live broadcast when the band were peaking and sounding so good. What happened? -
Soundboard 9.5 - Ass-kicking greatness! -
Aud 8.4 -
Audience 8.3 -
SDBRD 9.8 - Almost absolutely perfect, like you get both guitars in their own space so you can hear what each player is doing perfectly. This is how I prefer to listen to ACDC! -
FM Broadcast 8.8 - Once you get past the first song which has some channel dropouts, it’s all systems go full tilt boogie for reals. This is just flat out awesome! -
SDBRD pre-FM source 9.4 - Legendary for the pristine sound quality but let’s not forget that the late 70’s was ACDC at their best. This is one for the books. -
Aud 8.5 and PRO RADIO 9.6 - The Brisbane is a raucous, loud, crashing kind of show/recording that gives one a sense of sitting on the side of the stage and watching them. The BBC material is awesome!
