Recording comments
Best version of this fabulous show. The one you must have from this tour. [kaspergm]
The definitive version, this is the most worth getting bootleg of this show, don't bother with the others... This one is more clear, solid and less compressed (compression almost or inexistent), than previous versions This is a must-have from this astounding show. Perfect! [Jack_Floyd]
Although this is a show well worth having, the relativley poor sound quality of the source makes this much less than A+ recording to my ears. I'm a harder grader than most, celarly, but this is a B+ show for me. Too bad the Pre-FM copy (if there even was one) has not surfaced. [ca1ore]

Recording comments
The ultimate version of the ultimate 'Selling England' show. Essential. [LivingForever]
A must-have upgrade compared to all the boot versions with exceptionally crisp and clear sound. Only a shame that we are still relegated to mono sound as on other sources. Apparently this performance was broadcast to the radio station via a telephone line! [pablo]
Great! I got my first 15th??? :-) generation copy of "L'Ange Gabriel" more than 20 years ago, then comes a green vinyl copy of "The Rarest Live" that was a big improvement... Fade release is definitively the ultimate one. [Gigio67]
This is definitely a worthwhile release, but mine has no VDGG or Peter Hammill material, just the Genesis set. [assureaseggsiseggs]
The definitive SEBTP recording. Unfortunately Peter's intros are all in French. [mdekoning]
This was the ultimate SEBTP bootleg ... until the more recent PRRP version. Still, a great sounding bootleg, but go get the PRRP version instead. [kaspergm]
The best Selling England gig in a astounding form, this bootleg beats all previous version, however, there is a superior version from PRRP, which, in my point of view is more worthy [Jack_Floyd]

Show memories
The intros and crowd noise on this Bedside Yellow Foam bootleg are identical to those from the Bristol Hippodrome recording Bristol Melody of 1974 from January. The bootleg attributes the recordings to a canadian concert, but they aren't. [fangsonofgreatfang]
