Allman Brothers at Fillmore East, which one?

I think I remembered MF saying the MOFI "Kind Of Blue" was "Kind Of Blah".

You need to actually read the article.  The title was to catch reader's attention.  He gave it an 11/10.

Can we add best CD or SACD versions as well?

mofi: My bad. Thanks.

I just compared my (only two copies) of this lp with one song from each at the same volume.

"Hot 'Lanta"

I have the aforementioned "beige" label and the Classic re-issue.

The difference between the two is stark!

The Classic: more perceived energy, spacious soundstage, better defined bass. It sounds more like a live show. The "beige", I will sell as soon as possible.

Mofi, By the way, with all of the music we all try to buy/listen to... when I see a review entitled "Kind Of Blah" for any lp, I just skip over it.

It did capture my attention. Therefore I decided it wasn't worth my time to read.

Cheers!

Astro- I have the Classic remaster as well as an early pink label Capricorn that I compared quite a while ago. My recollection is that the Classic has more "hi-fi" attributes- detail and more open in the midrange, as you mentioned, but that the early pink label Capricorn was more cohesive, of a piece. I probably have a beige Capricorn around somewhere (unless I got rid of it). I can try to re-compare. I think some of this is listener preference and system bias- i.e., the sonic character of the mastering may better match what you like or complement the character of the system it is played on. Overall, I don't think this recording is a great sounding record, much as I love the music.  (I played the hell out of a copy back when it was originally released- have no idea where that old copy is). And these--the less stellar recordings, sonically, -- are often the records that make me search for better sounding copies.
