MANASSAS
London 1972 [no label, 1CD]
BBC Television Theatre, London, UK; September 1972. In Concert, BBC 2 TV. Very good audio.
In the wake of CSNY’s success in the late ’60s and early ’70s, all four members recorded high-profile solo albums. In 1972, Stephen Stills teamed up with ex-Byrd Chris Hillman to form the band Manassas. Their self-titled double album was a mixture of rock, country, blues, bluegrass and Latin music divided into different sections.
Thanks to original taper, DimeTravel and kneesfudd for sharing the tracks at Lossless Legs.
kneesfudd’s notes:
- VERY fine and absolutely steady, mono, slightly flat quality.
- Warts: SLIGHT TV speaker buzz/hum thruout (lowered on this Mk2 version using lite NR). Fixed most every dullspot and dropout but mighta missed a couple. #1,2,13 each have a split second tape lag.
- DIFFERENT source tape than “From Bull Run To Culpepper” CD. This is NON-boot, steadier quality (esp. the Mk2 version) and 2 minutes longer.
