Baltimore 1975 (2002)
About The Album
This bootleg CD-R is on the label "Carlotta's CDs" (128 Ocean Drive, Sydney, Australia).The following report is from a fan:
"This is probably the disputed Largo, Maryland show from an unspecified October date listed on Jack's tour web page. The performance and recording are both superb, with the following notations:
"Derek's introductions are really soft in spots, and the vibe duet in the drum bash seems quite loud by contrast.
"The recording appears to be incomplete. Runaway/Experience fades out and So Sincere fades in, probably skipping the Excerpts for Octopus medley in the bargain. Batteries run out, tape ends and can't find a new one, who knows what happened? Haven't had a chance to listen to it all the way through yet, so I don't know if the instrumental version of Plain Truth is included, but it's not on the set list.
"The photos are really good, but the back cover appears to be from a much earlier tour. It's an extreme long overhead shot. Left to right, near as I can tell: Gary, Phil, Derek, John, Ray, and Kerry's huge heyboard setup, which implies Kerry just out of frame. As a curious sidebar, Derek appears to be wearing boots, black pants and something resembling a leather teddy (hurt me, hurt me). the front sleeve is a medium close up of Gary and Ray really getting into it. Ray's on violin and has his shirt open. Gary seems to be cheering him on. The CD label is a shot from the drum solo, during the vibes section -- wired crop with John in the center, great focus and color, nice feel to the shot."
