Probably the best sounding Traffic live recording ever?
ReplyDeleteThat`s no surprise, as the notes say: "it was taped off the Grateful Dead`s soundboard" and there are no better sbd recordings like the Dead ones. Personalized by audio engineers like Owsley "Bear" Stanley and Dan Healy...
Thank you very much for this. Grew up with band. Brightened my day a little too. Take care one and all.
ReplyDeleteMichael.
Thanks a lot. One of my favorite bands, and don't think I've seen this performance before.
ReplyDeleteI wanted to mention that the date and location for this one are in question. I grew up in NYC and the Anderson Theater was history by 1970. Research indicates this show took place at the Fillmore East on 11/18/70 during a run shared with the Dead. It's an amazing quality tape that I've had from other sources for a number of years. Thanks for all the great music you share!
ReplyDelete@Alan R. - I received this recording as 'The Anderson'. I've seen it both ways and have yet to find anything definitive. From what I can find the Fillmore show was 11-18-70 and Traffic played the Anderson almost a week later on the 23rd. Found this interesting... http://streetsyoucrossed.blogspot.com/2005/07/still-hangin-out-on-second-avenue.htmlesting Anders Theatre
