Copenhagen comparison?



Hey all:

I'm wondering if anyone here can do a sound-quality comparison for me on a
recording. It¹s the KB Hallen, Copenhagen show from June 3, ¹71. The only
recording I have of it is from Tintangel¹s "The Complete Tapes 1970-1971."
That¹s a 3-CD box set I bought in the early ?90s. The Copenhagen tracks
included on that box set are: Four Sticks, Gallows Pole, Misty Mountain and
Rock and Roll. How does this Tintangel release compare to later (and
presumably better, or lower-gen) recordings? Is there a vast difference? I
suspect not, but maybe I'm wrong. I¹d grade the Tintangel tracks at almost a
"7." I'd really and truly appreciate it if someone who¹s familiar with this
release could compare it to other recordings of this show in terms of sound
quality. Eye Thank Yew.

By the way, through some kind of fluke/fuck-up in the space-time continuum,
it appears that May 27 will never actually goddamn GET HERE! "One minute
seems like a lifetime" indeed, Robert! I have not set foot outside my New
York apartment for the last week or so, lest I be struck down by a cab or
bus or suicide bomber, or get caught in some rap-star cross-fire, and thus
die before I ever get my hands on "HTWWW" and "DVD." If I die before I
see/hear these releases, I know that I am going straight to Hell. And in
that Hell, Bonzo sits in a sturdy cage, armless, while Karen Carpenter, a
mere three feet away from him, taps listlessly at his ¹73 American-tour
clear Vistalite Ludwig drum kit. And I have a front-row seat. Forever and
ever. . .
