This is more complete (11 minutes longer)
and
MUCH better sounding than my previous seed of this show.

THANKS MUCHO to JackStraw42 for reminding me that he had sent me an upgrade.

I've generated new md5 and fingerprint files
Included is the original info file that JackStraw42 sent me.
I've included another info file with a bit more detail.

Similar musically to the other February and March shows in Germany
that is...
very nice.
I love the shows from this tour.

THE SONGS


You know, these complete Bricks are just incredible.
It's really a shame that no Soundboard recordings exist of any live performance of the 70+ minute long Thick as a Brick.
John's organ solos are fantastic.
The little bits of compositions in the "improv" sections are neat.
The whole danged thing is just mind-blowing.
If you don't have any of the long Brick that they performed from March 1972 - May 1973 get some.
You won't be disappointed.
This one is really good, but the sound quality ain't that hot.
I prefer higher quality sound and later in the tour, after June 1972, though the really early ones are interesting too.

THE PERFORMANCE:

Another GREAT performance.
The folks in Germany were treated to many special Tull shows.
The band was always a little better, took more risks, in Germany I think.
So was Frank Zappa.

HEY GANG:
I offer what I have, with ALL the information known to me.
If you've got a better version, seed it.
If you have more accurate information, please add it in a comment.
If anyone would like to attempt a remastering job, go right ahead.

Let's try and keep it positive and make DIME as good an experience for all as possible.
