Very good audience recording. Many thanks to the taper!
Source 2:
No source info at all. Probably same source.
I know this is a long shot, but any chance of a re-up? I would very much appreciate the sbd recording of astral weeks. Thanks.

Thanks for sharing Mat. It’s clearly an AUD show and not SBD as stated in the text. Pretty good sounding. If I come across the SBD version I’ll share it with you.

The original notes on this post came from my old, lost friend FreeMorrison. For a time (several years ago) he had my permission to post on this blog. He could be a bit excitable, exerting great praise for shows that were perhaps not as wonderful as he would have you believe. It was great, I loved his enthusiasm, but one had to temper his exclamations with a little calm listening.
Truth is I’m not entirely sure if the show I have posted here is the same one he posted. The new notes I have now posted are the ones that came with the bootlegs (and not FMs notes that he posted on the blog). I think it is the same show as there are still some tell-tale signs that the posted bootleg is from him (his notes were often written in italics and he usually included alt-artwork) but I can’t be positive.
Which is why I went ahead and changed the notes for this show. His old notes do indicate that not ever song is a soundboard, but only some of them which seemed to have been lifted off Van’s website. I have no idea what the source is but we’re gonna keep it as an audience recording for now.
That being said a quick listen shows, to my ears at least, that its a nice sounding bootlegs. Hardly “trashy”. Of course your mileage will vary. Apologies to anyone who downloaded it thinking it would be a SBD only to find it not.
