Review from Tight But Loose website:
Empress Valley have come up trumps with this release. The sound quality is simply stunning and it is hard to tell the difference between the audience and the soundboard tapes. As much of the show as exists has been assembled, and the editing between the two recordings is seamless. It was however a bit of an overindulgence to release the soundboard tape by itself as the third disc, this really should have been a two disc composite. Having said that it is still the best version ever of this great show. (Jules McTrainspotter Nov 01).
Review from Saitoh:
I personally agree that during HMMT, the slice to the soundboard to complete the song (and medleys) is very VERY hard to pick up. it is so well done (it took me 3 listenings to figure out it's just a couple seconds before 9min flat, and that's with the knowledge of where the Divinity source ended). While the soundboard is decent quality (not stunning, but it is easily better then the previous Charisma release), it has been heavily tweaked, and evidence of this can be heard during some of the quiet parts of the medley (it's not aggrivating, but revieling more or less).
While this is originally a 3 disc release (notice the matrix numbers at the top), I'm not posting the very last disc. Why? Because it's just the partial soundboard tape that is in circulation, and since the audience tape is better quality (for 1970, that's a scary, scary thought), it's not worth the time to post and download IMHO (if someone wants it I'll post it, but I dont think its needed as the above reviewer noted).
