  1. Aah, such high praise! It means a lot to hear that from two of the most famous members of this site! Most definitely the highlight of day! :)

    The audience source sounds fine to me, it isn't nearly as bad as 1977/04/23. That's a show I rarely listen to, only because of the tape quality. I do find it unbelieveable that there's only one audience tape out of 76,229 people. We have shows like 1970/09/04 where there are 6 sources and not even 1/2 that many people are there. For all we know, there could be a tape that sounds as good as a Milard tape somewhere out there. Hell, if I wanna make some really wild accusations, I bet somebody has the multitracks of this show. And to answer your question, Nutrocker, I have heard every '77 show, it's definitely my favourite tour. I've been really getting into the '75 tour lately, but '77 will always be my #1.

    Haha yeah...the 23/4 tape from Atlanta is quite unlistenable....From what i know, the dude that taped the show had placed the tape recorder under his seat (!!) so tha'ts why the tracks sound so boomy and muddy.When i had to upload the particular gig on a bootleg site i gave it only 5/10 but i still think i have overrated it :lol: .....(Anyway, Bloomington 1970 or Wembley Empire Pool 1971 must be the worst recordings EVER)

    As for the Silverdome, i have the same feeling with Sue: I can't understand how is it possible among 76,229 people having ONLY ONE dinstant, moderate and not so enjoyable recording.I mean, nobody else felt like keeping a record from that epic show ? As far as the Pro-shot footage is concerned, i would like to give some hope among the forum's commuinty by saying that Who's new dvd release with footage from The Summit in Houston, Texas on November 20th 1975 was found recently (circa 2010) in a very old box in the venue's office by someone from the Summit's staff and given to a collector who finally sold it to Who.....What if something like that happened with the Pontiac footage ? I know that Jimmy maybe wouldn't have officially released it but i am sure that EVSD would have something done about it....Personally i give about 10 more years for the video to come out....We 'll see people....

  2. The audience recording of the Silverdome gig is really atrocious, but it's a must for any hardcore fan....The band that night was absolutely on fire and Jimmy was very concentrated at his solo parts.

    This one and the 21st June gig from the LA forum are maybe the best concerts from the whole tour...

    Anddd.....don't forget the possible existance of pro-shot footage that many fans would die to see.....me included :lol:
