I was able to obtain a CDR copy of the "Comeback to England" LP years ago. It was just ok quality, from the same recordings available on CDs at the time, possibly "Come Back London." I can't be sure now because I threw the CDR after comparing.
"Live at Hidepark" I've never heard but agree that its value is only due to its rarity, not its audio content.

Wow, makim, the difference between the cover I posted and the cover you posted is so ... slight.
However, the "Comeback" LP I have seen is like neither. It just states, "COMEBACK TO ENGLAND" on a plain white background.

Thanks for your input dph. It doesn't completely rule out the possibility that the vinyl is actually better than the circulating CD-bootleg. I would love to hear a decent, unaltered transfer of the LP. So if anybody has a copy lurking in the attic....
Speaking of Hidepark... Does anyone have a copy of the complete radiobroadcast that provided the material for the better Hydepark bootlegs? I have made a compilation of the tracks and interviews that have surfaced but it seems to be incomplete and gives no clue as to when or where it was broadcasted.

Trust me, the "Hidepark" LP isn't worth tracking down for its recording quality.
I assembled a compilation of Hyde Park 1969 from various sources including the radio broadcast. I had a CDR of the broadcast but threw it out after finishing. It was from the 1979 tenth anniversary broadcast of the soundboard tape plus interviews, by WLIR FM, Long Island, New York (near New York City). The interviews are with Jo Bergman (pretty sure) and a guy I don't recognize, possibly with Granada TV.
