Re: Gordon at Massey Hall 1974!
Soundboard recording? Do you think so? I thought it sounded like an audience recording. You can almost feel the applause between numbers (and it's overwhelming at times) which means the recorder would have had to have been in the audience. I would think a soundboard recording would have more balance between the music and the crowd. I love how responsive the audience is to Gordon, waiting until each song is over to erupt in applause- especially toward the end where it starts to feel like a party! Interesting that Wayne's site claims that all four Massey Hall shows from 1974 were recorded. I didn't know that. If true, you wouldn't think that the same problem would have plagued all four recordings.
