Common Complaint In Osaka: Rice In Hair!

Eddie Edwards Compilation

Date: 29th September 1971, 1st Japan Tour
Venue: Festival Hall,Osaka, Japan
Label: no Label 3 CD-R 
Sound: Stereo -Aud 5-9
most complete concert 196 Min.
several different sources used to make it complete
main source is from LP with crackles
many people prefer the LP source ( like "A cellarful of noise" ) because it Sounds more natural and has more warmth...... if you can stand the crackles :-), I think itīs not bad and worth for the most complete Version of that show. 3  Fan-Compilations are in circulation 1) Eddie Edwards: Common Complaint In Osaka - Rice In Hair! ,2) Ron del Ciello's Complete Mix, 3) Susumi Omi's (untitled?),  but I was not able to check the other 2 so far.
Disc 1:  Immigrant Song, Heartbreaker, Since Iīve been loving you, Black Dog, Dazed & Confused 
Disc 2:  Stairway to Heaven, Celebration Day, Thats the Way, Going to California, Tangerine, Friends, Smoke gets in your Eyes, What is & what should never be, Moby Dick
Disc 3: Whole Lotta Love (incl. Medley), Communication Breakdown, Organ Solo / Thank You, RockīnīRoll
