Live at the Fillmore East 1968

"... Live at the Fillmore East 1968 offers a surprisingly insightful moment in an overlooked period of the band, after they moved out of their R&B; mod grooves and before they had fully developed the massive sound of the early 1970s. As such, fans will enjoy it as a historical document, but the real rewards come in simply going with the energy of the set ... Had this record been released in its time, it might have felt like the statement that Leeds and every other show was catching up to. Coming decades later from the vaults, it's valuable as a historical artifact, but even more worthy as a devastating concert in itself, inevitable closing guitar-smashing and all".
