In recent years, the "Mike Millard Tapes" have been digitized, either directly from the master tapes or from low-generation tapes. These tapes were recorded by Mike Millard, a taper familiar to fans for his exceptional audience recording skills. The same label has released several recordings using these newly digitized Mike Millard Tapes as masters, but if you look closely, you may have noticed that there are two types: "Brushed Mike Millard Tapes" and "Legendary Mike Millard Tapes." Not all Mike Millard Tapes have perfect sound quality; some have considerable room for improvement, and the "Brushed" series are those that have been significantly improved. The "Legendary" series consists of recordings that were originally near-perfect, leaving little room for improvement in sound quality, and only minor editing such as slight cuts between tracks.

This time, we have Peter Gabriel from the "Brushed" series. While it's part of the "Brushed" series, it's not a case of poorly edited recordings; rather, it's the kind of "Brushed" recording that shines even brighter with polishing. Peter Gabriel, who left Genesis after "Enchanted Broadway," recorded his Roxy Music performance during the tour following the release of his first album, "Blue Car," and his second album, "Tearing Apart." Tony Levin, the phenomenal bassist who would go on to play a major role in the progressive rock world with King Crimson and other bands, and is also famous for his stick playing, joins the band.
