DEEP: Every song Dylan played on the 1974 tour is represented on this set; Some rare live stuff here and, as one would expect, the quality is a little uneven. Well represented are the previously released 1974 Boston and New York soundboards. The rest are audience recordings which run the gamut from fair to very good, with nothing unlistenable and most very enjoyable. This was not my favorite tour but it is a real treat to hear the Planet Waves stuff live, Nice color front and back covers, by the way.)

EDLIS: This is my favorite CD title from 74 tour. For those who might not be too impressed with the other official and unofficial releases from the 74 tour, if you can stand the variable sound quality, then this might change your mind on the 74 tour.

NOTE: Cloned/reissued in 2006 by Thin Man.
