I recently got around to watching this DVD and was surprised how god-awful the sound mix was for the Kilburn performance. It is touted in the opening credits as being recorded on a 16 Track deck, and special note was made to the sound engineer in the accompanying booklet. I was absolutely disgusted with the poor sound quality, you couldn't even hear Pete's guitar through the entire show! What a shame to wait so long for such a coveted show, only to be disappointed with the quality of the mix. I cannot beleive that the Daltrey-Townsend camp approved this for release in this form.

What's wrong with Kilburn is almost all of the vocals were dubbed in the studio later (the original bootleg is available at longliverock.org). Entwistle on 'My Wife' was unbelievably off key (singing wise), although the extended jam (terribly edited on Kids Are Alright) is nice to have. Moonie was dreadfully off tempo on the Baba O'Riley finale.

I've been trying to show my ugly mug around here once or twice a month — check the Chart Attack! archives. Also, for better or worse, you're stuck with me every day from December 1 – 25 for Mellowmas.
