DEEP: Along with the fabulous Knight Of The Hurricane, this is the definitive collection of Rolling Thunder '75. The performances are outrageously good - the Boston is in much better sound that the old Great Dane set (and not cut up, either). To include the complete circulating Plymouth soundboard (7 tracks) was a masterstroke. Two transcendent Toronto tracks not included elsewhere on the set are just icing on an already tasty cake. Essential stuff in terrific quality. The wonderful, original artwork is welcome; the colorful background scheme has a nice Rolling Thunder feel to it. More than essential.
