| I'll agree with JR that the sound is clean and that the album is a true rock/blues classic, but it's all down hill from there. Like so many SACD reissues, I find this one a little thin and compressed in the dynamics department (when compared with an ORIGINAL Capricorn labeled LP), but I did not do any comparisons to earlier digital transfers, where I would expect the SACD to win the contest by a slight margin. I must say that with all of the disappointment I’ve been having with many SACD reissues of vintage recordings that it’s probably time for me to come to the realization that the engineers in the music industry are their own worst enemies.

| The sound on this record is amazing if you take into account the recording date. And the music is ... what it is. I just love it. This is much better than the DTS version. Listen to Gregs voice ... everything sounds as if you would be sitting some 50m from the stage. I can recommend this record to everybody who likes the white blues.

| This one's been a long time comin' and worth the wait. Very clean sound. Incredible for tapes made in 1971 at a live show in the Fillmore East. Tom Dowd knew what he was doing. Not sure who the DSD transfer is credited to but they did a good job as well. The album was in my collection for a lot of years and the cd since it came out. I expect I will have the SACD until the next perfect media format comes out. What can I say, if you dig the Brothers, you will buy this disc.
