Pittsburgh, soundboard. Has one of the better YCAGWYW

To each their own. I think the Pittsburgh performance is solid but a bit lackluster.

Lackluster? It's completely fueled by coke and runs at double speed! There's a lot to be said about the last couple of shows from the 1972 tour, but 'lackluster'??

By lackluster I didn't necessarily mean low on energy. It's fine, but lacking dynamics and feel. It's '72 Stones in decent shape, well "rehearsed", on coke and on autopilot. I have a version of Pittsburgh I got from Dime-A-Dozen years ago, where someone has tucked on Street Fighting Man from Charlotte (the aud recording) at the end because it's missing from the Pittsburgh soundboard, and IMHO the difference in musical feel (for lack of a better phrase) is noticeable.

To me that is due to the quality of the soundboard -there's no life to it, no air. It's compressed, in your face, too loud. Bit the same as the New York soundboard. Has an audience tape ever shown up?

On page 278 there's written:
PITTSBURGH 1972 No Label IFPI LT001
This CD originates also from 2017. The magicians have cranked up the music and to my ears this is the Party version of this fabulous show. Play at maximum volume, plug in your air guitar and just go crazy for 70 magic minutes. If I was king, this would be compulsory for all my nationals.
