2.0 out of 5 stars Careful with this one, July 22, 2005

Big Mountain fan here and have been enjoying the bootleg releases that have surfaced lately from the archives of Corky and Leslie's personal stash. I purchased this one however and I am very disappointed. It stated it was recorded Live in New Jersey in 1973. I already own the Mountain Greatest Hits Live (King Biscuit Flower Hour)which is said to be recorded the same place only a year later. The recordings on this disk are the very same as the ones on the Mountain greatest hits live disk. However The King Biscuit Flower Hour sounds better and has more songs as well. Very disappointed in this one. It should have the dates correctly stated to avoid the confusion. I certainly did not need to spend the money i forked over for this one. The music is very good but king biscuit is the better buy by far. Crossroader is also listed as a song on the bootleg version but is nowhere to be heard on the disk though.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wrong alblum reviewed above by Arthurley "music expert" ???, January 26, 2008

The review by 'Arthruley' above must be referring to the alblum "Official Bootleg Series, Vol. 6: Passaic NJ Capitol Theatre '74 " which seems to be similar to the King Biscuit Flower Hour disc. The base line in both Vol 6 and KBFH is very weak. The set list for Vol 3 has fewer songs than the other two and does not include 'Mississippi Queen'. The base line in Vol 3 is strong and overall the disc seems well recorded unlike the other two.

I purchased this official bootleg with skepticism, wary of what the sound quality might be. Other than the vocals being a bit distant, the audio fidelity on this 32 year old recording ROCKS!

Mountain has always been much better live than on their studio recordings. Leslie, Corky, and Felix blaze through a raucous set, including an improvised solo of Jingle Bells (!)

Having seen many live shows at the now defunct Capitol Theater, this set holds some sentimental value for me. It is a treat for any hardcore Mountain fan. Highly recommended.
