4 stars When this was released I was immediately interested because of its content (a full live set from the 'Live Herald' tour), but concerned about the audio quality. I needed have worried, as this sounds as good as (indeed better than some) live albums from the period, despite being a cassette recording from the front of house desk.

This is no 'Earthbound'. I don't know how much work Hillage has done to refine the sound, but I don't think one can ever make 'a silk purse from a sow's ear', so I guess what we hear is pretty much what the audience heard on the night.

It must have been a pretty good night - a dynamic show that flows well, with material unavailable in live form elsewhere. If you like Steve Hillage there's plenty to like here. Got to be worth four stars.
