notes:
This is a tolerable audience recording.
There is no listing at etree of this
show and this sounds pretty good when
the music is playing. There are long
periods of time when Willie Dixon
is talking and there is crowd chatter
during those times. This is a tribute
to Muddy Waters with some big names.
Quality is good, but not great. Sort
of distant sounding at times and the
crowd can be heard between songs.
There are 4 discs in this set from
6 mostly filled sides of 3 cassettes.
