A radio soundboard from 1970. The CD lists it as 9/22/70 (the day prior to the other Paris soundboard as found on Shake Your Hips, et.al.). I prefer this version as the sound is a bit crisper. The only drawback being the French DJ who talks over the beginning and end of some songs. Having not studied French since college, or 8 years ago, it's even more annoying since I can't understand what the Hell he's saying. An excellent board for this era though. [Dr. Riff, Dr.Riff@worldnet.att.net] Skip the VGP release of "Paris Affair" A crummy effort of the same 1970 show which has been out before. This one is ruined by DJ interuptions throughout. The sound quality also leaves much to be desired.

(FM w/commentary)
This tape comes from a French radio broadcast, but the sound isn't very good.
Apparently the source tape came from a microphone held to the radio speaker.
How times change. The recording is certainly no better than an audience tape,
and the between song commentary is annoying. This VGP CD is a little better
than previous releases but might run a little fast.
