I'll go along with 'Live 76' though as per A.A.'s comment, I wouldn't
dispute the quality of the performance: I would also refer the greybeards
around here to Ducks Deluxe's farewell live album - phoooeeee on the sound
front, and I have a recording of the Mahler #8 that sounds like it was done
with a dictaphone!
