This is the final performance of Interstellar Overdrive.  The cover shot 
is taken backstage at The Dome - Brighton, England on 72-Jan-20.

Thanks to Eric (and my own ineptitude) for helping me on the dates for 
each song.

Disc 1 comes from digitally declicked and denoised acetates that was 
recorded by EMI, but never released previously. Superb quality.  Disc 2 
is not as good as Disc 1, but very nice recording. At least, it is much 
better than a circulated one and a bootleg like 'Montreux Casino (Hiwatt)' 
that was released previously.

As I understand it, this comes from two different dates. The first CD 
comes from the unreleased acetates recorded by EMI and it sounds 
absolutely divine (apart from the mild distortion sometimes). Superb. 
The second CD, on the other hand, is not as good but much (I cannot 
stress the word "much" enough, or maybe I just had a really bad copy) 
better than what was available before such as HiWatt's "Montreux Casino". 
It still comes from the acetates but they just don't sound as good 
(or maybe it's the denoise?). Anyways, it's worth it. 2nd CD is a VG+/Ex-. 
There's a part of the first track on CD 2 that has an annoying little hum 
but the rest is fine. Nice performance as well.
