Notes: What we have here on Something Old Something Blue is another very good to excellent soundboard. All of the instruments are nice and clear with the audience sounding distant. Mick plays MC keeping the show going at a brisk pace and having fun with the audience. He reminds the crowd that Candlestick Park was the site of the last Beatles concert, calling it useless trivia under his breath. The performance is very good building up to the finale with an astonishing string of classics. The encore “Satisfaction” comes from a mediocre sounding audience recording.
As good as this release is I’m not completely happy with it. Unlike Empress Valley’s Seattle Supersonic, Dog N Cat has used some mastering on the tape. It sounds more compressed and there is a slight metallic sound in the background more apparent in the quieter moments. Further there is slight radio interference in the mix at certain points. Probably security at the venue. Overall this is a nice release. The mastering job done on the tape isn’t enough to detract from the music, and certainly isn’t as bad as other releases I’ve listened to. (Info taken from collectors music reviews).
