    Interesting but how was it recorded? A ‘remix’ version implies a multitrack of some sort 😉

    Great, after Stowe, Bournemouth and The Emi House recording another unreleased concert that leaked out of hoarders’ clutches… there still is Hong Kong 64, Rome and Lyon 65 and a video of Boston 66 in color…did I miss anyhing???

    Must save this Search on eBay. YouTube post will surely be disappeared soon.

    I think this is the evening show.
    Pity we don’t get the afternoon show as the audience recording in awful quality, sounds like they put on a better performance.

    Sounds like only the vocal mics wen through the board directly. Instruments seem to be ambient. Still a fairly decent recording.

    I am grateful for this. Because we probably won’t get anything from Apple this year that isn’t a re ( re re) release.
