Very poor quality.  I'd forget the CDs and just get a tape of the show.

There is an awful lot of crowd chatter on this album.  If you can get
past that, I think you'll find the music pretty well-recorded and worth
hearing.  I was struck by Dylan's performing "In the Garden" and Dead
Man, Dead Man".  I'd say listen to it before you buy it.
