"ariel" is great & there's a killer version of "cruel white water" with banjo into a smoking' "last flash of rock & roll". many more '77-79 bob hunter shows to surface into the net world from the looks of things, but not of this rare '76 vintage. savor like a fine wine!, kudos to zongo for life support, lochner for mikes&more & fast freddie for runnin' video dick's record emporium with the bathroom office full of tape decks. thanks to hanwaker (few among us can keep his pace). mountains of gratitude to davmar, d.white, sanchez, elliot, the florida kid, kloiber, zingg, jtw, bershaw, boston gold, weeks, dixon, moore, gough & so many more for all that collecting & sharing... royal thanks to the man in the palace, doc tinker, brinkhoffs, barely eatin', reel master gaule, parrish & all the traders who housed me thru my music acquisition & travel years. hats off to brother kent, uncle jake, little queenie (& her neighbor frank) & his honor ptomaine thomas. glasses raised to byron for musical horizon expansion & much obliged to j & thurston for keepin' my concert fires burnin' since my continental shift. thanks to the mods for keepin' dime alive. enjoy, share, give, spread peace. yers truly, knees, support the artist! but if you are looking at this, you probably already have & do!, do whatever you want with it except sell it, 'cause that ain't cool! | 122841 | C+ | in comparison on ariel, 119130 has more hiss and is harsher but 122841 is more suppressed and less natural sounding; need 122841 for songs not on 119130; sound improves on t14 and t15 when roadhog does not dominate | | *** |
