James Brown Live at the Apollo 180g

I was just wondering if anybody has compared the 180g to the original recording, and if so, is the reissue worth the purchase price-Cheers

The sealed one has a minimum bid of $69.95, but that's to be expected. My local Best Buy has some LPs, but nothing as cool as a JB at the Apollo reissue.
