In a way, the absence of Duane Allman from this set is a blessing.
Instead of striving fruitlessly to match the high-tension interweave of the studio versions, D&D function as the Eric Clapton Band, rolling easy the way they learned to with Delaney & Bonnie.
Clapton's vocals are rough and winning, and he gets to deliver his warm, clear, rapid runs of notes and slurs, well, how to say it--in concert rather than in competition (with Duane, with Jack and Ginger, with himself).
Even "Bottle of Red Wine" and "Blues Power" make sense on-stage and never sounded better

Got To Get Better In A Little While (14:40)

In keeping with its barely/unplayed status my play-check at loud volume found no audio issues of any kind - superb set - Clapton at his best

A clean and sharp gatefold cover with little wear to speak of - just a couple of shop creases to the spine
