Here's another Giant show that hasn't gotten around much. My intention
here on dime is to only seed GG shows that are not easily available
elsewhere. I'm picking shows that are mostly new to the trading
community, I don't mean shows that are just new to bit-torrent sites,
but ones that haven't traded hardly at all, period. I've been lucky
enough to get my hands on some of these through the years, so I figure
this is a good place to get them out there. Anyway, that's the plan.
Thanks to all for the kind words so far.

This particular show came to me a few years back in a trade. The guy
I got it from wasn't sure what he had at first, so he contacted me
for some help and we managed to figure it out. I've never seen this
listed anywhere else in my life, so I was thrilled the guy got in
touch with me.

SOUND QUALITY

Well, not the greatest. Maybe a B- or so. Still plenty enjoyable,
but those of you looking for only a few choice Giant shows might want
to pass on this one. Serious collectors - grab it. It is a full show.

I did nothing to alter this recording from the way I received it.
Excerpts from Octopus is split in two, apparently because of a tape
flip and I left it that way.

One cool thing during Excerpts - the band always included a recorder
quartet but this time, the four of them play a bit of Raconteur
Troubadour on the recorders. That only happened briefly at late 1974
European gigs like this one. Later, that tune was used during a
guitar duet instead.
