Live In San Jose 1966

This Quicksilver release is like a nice quality bootleg live LP. The vinyl quality is better than most new vinyl these days. I own several Purple Pyramid releases, only one of them is warped with no other issues. Overall great value in my opinion.

As my title says this should be bought buy collectors only. The show is only ok and the audio is weak. Good bootleg level

bringing back my childhood, or what i remember of it. very well done.

Not a bad recording although the vocals are loud in relation to the music. At this point QSM had not yet really developed their jam skills - at least not on this recording.Great historical account of a great band on the journey to finding their sound.

great

sounds great

Sound quality - for the most part here is pretty good. Do keep in mind that during this QMS gig, the band apparently encountered some equipment issues. Lately, I've noticed that the Cleopatra / Purple Pyramid label is (again) releasing a whole lot of must-own titles and this CD is by no means an exception. Tracks here that managed to lure me in were - the first two songs "All Night Worker" and "Walkin' Blues" that certainly get this live gig off to an out-standing start, the somewhat (?) emotional "Your Time Will Come", the nine-minute blues standard "Smokestack Lightning", their foot-stomping cover of Willie Dixon's "Back Door Man", "Codine" and the twelve-minute well-played "The Fool". Couple of other recent live QMS discs out now on Purple Pyramid you might want to also check out - 'Live At The Winterland Ballroom 1973', 'Fillmore Auditorium - Nov. 5, 1966' and 'Stony Brook College, 1970'. Duration: 69:08. Essential.

This is the review for the digital auto rip because I am still waiting for the Vinyl copy - arriving soon!I can only give this 3 stars because I'm a bit confused. I agree that the sound is good and all that can be expected from a 1966 (perhaps ad hoc) recording. Also hearing Jim Murray is fantastic and the early QMS (more bluesy early) sound.My concern is this; at least "Acapulco Gold and Silver", "Codine" and "The Fool" sound very similar to the QMS Live at Filmore June 7 1968 recording. In fact on the introduction to "Acapulco Gold and Silver" a reference is made to their recent Album….how can that be?Am I missing something here……I assume this will be a double album - so 5 star for the 1966 recordings, as for the re-packaged songs - I hope I am wrong.

ich benote Grundsätzliche alle Alben von Quicksilver Messenger Service mit 5 Sternen. Es gibt persönliche Gründe dafür. So ist auch dieses Album für mich ein Zeitdokument und schöne Erinnerung an eine spannende Zeit in Kalifornien.1972 habe ich QMS selber Live in San Jose erlebt.

Bonjour, la raison d'une étoile: pochette plié dans les coins et les 2 vinyles voilés !!!! Rageant et frustrant ! enfin pourquoi le commerce du web inflige à ces clients bien trop souvent un tel comportement...... Intolérable pourquoi acheter???
