This may be the most listened to bootleg I have of Sleep. This show was recorded right before the release of Holy Mountain and has a ton of those tracks. The sound is all there - the Roland Space Echo vocal effects, the heavy Orange/Green amp sound, Al's booming voice. Almost every track is a standout, including the only recording I can find of 'Sonic Titan', the only other song on the release of Dopesmoker that Tee Pee put out - and this is the show that was recorded at.
The audio quality is pretty good and powerful and the song selection is awesome. This one is easy to find on the net to download and I highly recommend it.
It's a great show to get a feel for what Sleep was all about - powerful, drivng riffs on 'Dragonaut', loud, pounding almost slow thrash on 'Sonic Titan' and the total stoner thing on Nain's Baptism. The volume and power of 'Sonic Titan' is too good to pass up.
My favorite Sleep bootleg!
ReplyDeleteI love "The Druid", "Dragonaut" and of course "Sonic Titan" on it!
Hey, I was wondering if there was a way for me to get a copy of this. I don't have anything to trade, but I did record and post the 9.13.10 Regency Ballroom show in SF (as hail_ozzy, posted on Dime in16 and 24 bit), if that's worth anything. Let me know. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteTotally - I'd be happy to - send me your email in a comment (which I won't publish) and I'll send you a link.
