Quality:   10   -ECHOES

Comments:  "A Family Affair" is also a hot performance, and gets a 9 or
           9+ on the "inspiration & improvisation" factor.  Excellent
           fidelity (the package doesn't say, but it sure sounds like
           it must be DDD) and absolutely mind-blowing stereo
           separation; it gets a 10 here too.  Almost no close audience
           noise throughout.  No noticable ROIO flaws of the usual
           types.  Packaging is simple, but good; simple picture
           discs.  The standard show (no DSoTM set).  I think it's
           Pittsburg on May 31, 1994.  This one's worth finding at all
           costs -- definitely "mission from God" stuff.  -ECHOES

           "A Family Affair" (31 May 94/Pittsburgh) contains errors
           such as:
           - Billing Coming Back to Life as Lost for Words
           - Misspelling Pittsburgh and song titles ("Deep Talking",
             "Us and Theme", "Comfortably Nump")     -ECM

           Although "A Family Affair" is a GREAT show, the audience
           noise is irritating. In the Comments section of the PF Roio
           Database, it is misleading when it is said that the audience
           noise is minimal. If anything, I thought it was annoying,
           especially when it ruined "On the Turning Away." Still, it
           is worth the effort and would place just behind "The Live
           Bell."        -ECHOES

           Great performance, I think it's better than The Live Bell. 
           Audience noise is similar IMHO. Recommended.
