I neither attended nor recorded this show so this info file will be VERY short and sweet. I got this tape in trade from a big-time Black Sabbath fan in Milwaukee (Jeff or Geoff) between 1991 & 1995. The recording is fairly low-gen and IMHO sounds better than the version posted by Looney99 very recently. There was an odd pulsing quality to her recording and there was a bit of distortion too that detracted from the great show that it is. No offense to her recording and we thank her and Sabbatology for the up. My version has some distortion also but is a lower gen tape which makes for an easier listening experience. The last 2 tracks are still somewhat distorted but the rest of the tape is fairly enjoyable. It sounds like the taper was moving around during the show and ended up too close to the stage. This recording is DEFINITELY Largo, Maryland as Ronnie mentions the people of Washington and Baltimore and Largo at the start of COTS. He also mentions at the end of NK that BS got started late and apologizes, saying that rock and roll has no time. It's hard to believe that it's been about 19 months since Ronnie left us. RJD died on May 16, 2010 and many hearts were broken that day, mine included. We lost a true gentleman, a heavy metal titan and a rock and roll heart. His music and spirit will live on forever in our hearts and he will never be forgotten. May God bless you and keep you, Ronnie and may you rest in peace. We are truly your rock and roll children.
Well, that's about all that I have to say so let's get this rock and roll package wrapped up so we can send it to your mom...finally, no buy, no sell, no mp3. Please seed this as long as you can. I will post a sample to help some of you decide whether or not to download this, but it's a pretty good- sounding tape and one that I think deserves a space in your Black Sabbath collection. So, as Mr. Natural is so fond of saying, have fun, don't freak out and enjoy the concert !
