Bookended by the haunting precision of 'First and Last and Always' and the raw, unbridled power of their 'Gimme Shelter' cover, this tape offers a visceral alternative to the sanitized official releases. It captures the heavy atmosphere of a band on the brink of collapse, delivering a performance that is as tense as it is brilliant.
