Review from the original uploader:
This is a fantastic quality piece as far as the sound goes. The instruments are well mixed, and the vocals are crisp. Unfortunately, the final show of the MSG residency is not Dylan’s best performance. What makes the package is actually the incredible filler material and the beautiful package. With two booklets, fantastic photos, and well thought out graphics and overall aesthetics, This becomes a very desirable package.

Notes from the original uploader:

Right a year or so ago I ripped this originally via a lossy minidisc lineage.
Well here better late than never is a true lossless version.
It does sound better than via minidisc, so for those that want it here it is.
The only processing that has been done to this is click & crackle removal,
other than that it is untreated.
There is still some vinyl noise present, especially on tracks 1 – 8 (side A of LP),
did what I could to bring it to an exceptable level.

There are problems with this LP:

01. “How Soon Is Now” has John Peel talking at the end, I have left it as it is.
02. “Half A Person” has “issues” for the first 5 seconds this is partly the recording/transfer & the failings of Vinyl.
This is how it is i’m afraid with this version nothing I can do.
03. “Still Ill” cuts off abruptly @ 2:20, this is how it is on the LP,
no idea why other than to speculate they cut it to fit all the tracks on the LP?
If anyone knows why please tell!

From the original uploader:
*This recording is purported to come from an FM ReelMaster. The sound quality is quite excellent, and this may very well be an appropriate lineage.The comparison to “Smoking Blues” reveals that this recording is brighter and cleaner, to my ears. You may find that its not an upgrade. caveat listener.danlynch 2004-08-17

From the original uploader
This is a complete audience recording of the June 26, 1976, show by the Stills-Young Band. This was widely booted as a single disc called “Evening Coca-Nuts,” which was missing many of the songs. This is the complete version from a boot called “Both the Great Men, Part 1.” On sound quality, I rate it an A compared with other audience recordings of that era. Very nice. In a few parts that don’t sound so good (e.g., “Suite: Judy Blue Eyes”), it’s because of a sloppy performance rather than a poor recording. Most of this is really nice, IMHO.
Since it’s from a commercial boot, I don’t know details of the recording. If anyone wants to claim credit for recording this, please do so.
Artwork is included.
