Well , I've had this tape stowed away since about forever (1976). With the recent CD re-release of "L.A. Express" and "Shadow Play" , I was able to affirm a few tracks on this recording. I cannot however confirm that this was done at A & M. I thought some of this might run a bit fast , but "Cry Of The Eagle" seems slower than the CD , so I left everything as is. The recording is very nice , with a little hiss , an "A -" I'd have to say.

Notes :

Unverified track titles are referred to as "Jam".
Track 01 fades in.
Removed about 1 minute of dead air throughout the recording.


Samples provided as always.

Please never convert to "Lossy"!
