notes:

standard Italian production
this is sourced froma re-release of the legendary Crackers LP, the recording is a sorta rough-rip from the vinyl, full of pops and stuff (especially CD1), luckily with no NR at least.
If you find somebody having a spotless vinyl I'd suggest you to ask for a rip of that instead of getting this CD release (and instead of spending money for so inaccurate releases as I did in my naive childhood for this one)
Sound quality varies according to the thickness of the vinyl noise, the recording would deserve an EX, but this version can't get more than a VG.
Only CDs sourced from the Crackers LP (and its re-releases) are around, a genuine copy of the master seems to have been never in circulation so far (of this recorder)
Note that Breathe is here attached from the 72 February 20 recording (SB source), probably it was not recorder from this taper, this is actually from the first recorder of the gig, different from Crackers (Zeus), Bowl De Luna etc... the second recorder got Breathe, but STM is missing there as well.
please note also "Pink Floid" written on the cover.....
