    Comments: Very low gen audience tape of an excellent complete show.
    Very little hiss, however, some tape speed fluctuations are a little distracting.
    CwtAE is standard performance from this time frame. Cymbaline is excellent with
    very clear "footsteps" tape effects. Echoes is a good version, with Gilmour
    doing great jamming and Mason's cymbal work top-notch, unfortunately it appears
    somewhat fast. Overall, a very good release with some excellent performances.

    With the exception of the tape speed fluctuations this might rate an Excellent.

    Note: I have corrected substantially most of the tape speed problems.
    There are still a few "warbles" but for the most part it sounds really nice.
