    Notes:
    This is a soundboard recording and well worth seeking out, but one
    can see why it was not released. Dave has one of his trademark
    laughing attacks during FOS. During the closing segment of Cymbaline
    (after the footsteps sequence) there is a particularly bad and prolonged
    problem with the sound system, causing Dave to burst into laughter
    once again.

    This is the _MOST IMPRESSIVE ROIO I HAVE ENCOUNTERED_ for a long time!
    A soundbord recording from an early 1970 show. Something I always dreamt
    of, the sound quality is amazing. Details are crystal clear. The quiet
    parts are easily comparable to Ummagumma. Definitely a Sup rating.
    Unfortunately, the tape is saturated in the louder parts which results
    in distortions. This is nothing more than EX-. Fortunately, this doesn't
    happen very often.
