I bought it after a good few years with only Live 72 and the original best of in my vinyl collection . It re ignited the flame for me and have never missed a tour since and went back to buy everything on CD. I went to the Magicians Birthday Party at Shepherds Bush and well , that was it. So I think it's a great album .
