Notes from my good trading buddy say this: "Jeff Beck 1976 is a from Reel > CD in its raw form. Taped by a guy who called himself McDog....and I got it directly from him." Etree has a listing for the next night in Seattle but says: Comment: No Known Recording. Rareness?
 
 
 
There are a few funky cuts/edits on this thing. Most obvious is what sounds like a tape break near the end of Sophie(I left it). Also, T03 was the last 40 seconds of Darkness & I found most of the first part of Darkness as the last track! I joined them but there is still some kind of minor splice job. Scatterbrain was also joined and is near seamles, I thinks. Full Moon Boogie is an obvious & painful splice.
 
 
The sound is from a master & nice but Sophie, let's say, does not sound as good as Freeway Jam- unless it's my imagination. Still quite decent for its vintage- I think.
 
 
Considering the very good sound & typically remarkable performance, these flaws are very forgivable- IMO.
 
 
 
enjoy
