(Henry Mancini/ Johnny Mercer) Side One
1) 5 stars, throughout 6-7, but a 10-sec. dropout after 1 minute makes it worse.
2) 4-5 stars, wow & flutter, tape hiss, dropouts; bob doesn't treat the song too well...
3) 6-7 stars , dry and compact sound, although cd "olympic pleasure sounds" far far better.
4) 7-8 stars, full sound/frequency range, close & dry; catching performance, 2 little harp solos
5) 6-7 stars, distant, some distortions due to over peak recording levels (??)
Side Two
1) 4-5 stars, dropouts, very distant, bassy, crowd noises; a bit uninspired .
2) 4-5 stars, distant, bassy, flaw, wows like a 5th generation tape - was it the first performance of that song? He plays a nice guitar...
3) 5 stars , flaw, bassy Bob introduces the song as .."my favorite honey...", huge crowd response (i.e. NOISE) as van steps up; he takes it away..
4) 6 stars, crisp sound, sharp tone
5) 7 stars good sound, crowd noises; soulful performance 6) 5 stars Bob's introduction hardly audible, flaw; somewhere between al martino and dean martin.... © 1999 Craig Pinkerton Bobsboots.com View enlarged images below Front Cover Album Back Cover Information:
This early 1992 release from European Label Spliff, was one of the last vinyl Dylan boots ever to be produced. The title has a multi level meaning. The cover is fairly nice with good aesthetics. The back contains full track and venue information. The catalog number on the back cover is: SPLIFF 002. There is no song separation, and no playing times are listed. All tracks are "field recordings", and quality varies (see details at left).
6 stars (overall) NMP45
