Decided to follow up the ’66 Johns Hopkins show with my favourite S&G concert. This was downloaded in FLAC from a hub and again the lineage is a bit sketchy, but it was definitely extracted from the Yellow Dog bootleg "Welcome In Holland" (catalog # YD 059/60). The recording clearly ran too slow — though by no means as slow as the first copy of the concert I obtained, back in the ’70’s — so I have speed-corrected it using Magix Audio Cleaning Lab 10 (the speed problems were inconsistent, so I worked on each track individually, making comparisons with many other shows, especially the Paris show from the same month; the original timings are indicated in brackets). I have not applied any noise reduction, although listeners who don’t like any hiss might want to do so. Certainly a soundboard, though with some volume fluctuations here and there.Wonderful rendition of "Bridge" with piano-only accompaniment — FAR better than the Ohio ’69 version with it’s crappy thumpety-thump drumming….

Amsterdam 1970: One of a handful of concerts performed in support of the Bridge Over Troubled Water album. A lively performance, with many "stripped down" renditions of BOTW material. An excited audience creates an ideal environment for Paul and Art to ad lib witty intros to the songs. The recording is quite nice, with a few dropouts, but definitely soundboard. Art has some problems with his microphone in the beginning, but they are quickly remedied.Haarlem 1966: A TV appearance featuring Paul in his "hip-and-cool" guise and Art as his usual self. The songs are performed well, but they are quick and to-the-point, likely due to time constraints from the TV show’s producer. The recording quality is good, but not as pristine as the 1970 show.
I got this show some time ago in a trade. I fixed D2T01 because there was some static in the beginning of the applause.

I hope you like the shows!
