This overlooked gem of a live album, recorded in 1972, is vastly superior in the remastered and remixed version. Six additional tracks make the album far more representative of a typical GW show of the period, and astonishingly good sound highlights the surprising firepower of the group during its twin guitar days.
Highpoints include the infernally catchy riff-rocker "Runnin Back to Saskatoon," the closing version of their folk-rock classic "No Time," (featuring exquisite group harmonies and a modal guitar duel), and the free-form improv opening rant appended to "American Woman," in which front man Burton Cummings excoriates said gal in a spew of Jim Morrison-esque gonzo Beat poetry that, as the late Lester Bangs observed, actually out-Jimboed the Lizard King.
