    Your review is BRILLIANT! Thanks for it - I worked for Leon for about 10 years and have been a fan since 1970.

    Nice write up. Too bad it's mostly pillaged from the website that sold this release. A little more originality would have made it more interesting.

    I relied less on the website than I did on the liner notes. I had previously written on the recording on other websites and drew from that original research for those recordings.

    My only interest was making it known that the entire series of concerts existed, which I had not discovered until a year after the release.

    I continue to use this release as my springboard for shaming the keepers of the The Allman Brothers at Fillmore East material to release a definitive box set.

    and if you'd read the liner notes a bit more closely you'd see that the original release was not just made up of fillmore east recordings.
