Album Notes & Community Reviews

Assembled from stunningly high-quality recordings of two 1972 California concerts, this triple album catches the British heavy rock titans at an absolute performance peak. Expanding acoustic interludes and electric blues standards into marathon, twenty-minute improvisational showcases, it is widely considered the definitive document of their virtuosic live power.
