I think it is only a reaction for the thousands of requests to release old
material that was indeed recorded in the early years

Richard Chadwick told me backstage after the Bochum gig (26.10.1995) that
they plan to release the Hammersmith gig from 05.Oct.1976.

I am really looking forward that all these material will be somedays on the
market.

Only to hear the old bootleg quality tapes is OK. But listening to a
soundboard quality tape would be amazing

Better a modified record like Palace Springs than a raw record like Youri
Gagarin.

You are right. There is no need to modify the live recordings. They should
release them like they were recorded.

But only if the  NOT played absolutely drunken and stoned (YOURI GAGARIN)
