Notes:
This release with a beautiful packaging has some noticeable flaws.
The Supreme Destroyers I strangely is inferior to the previous
Empress Valley title The Destroyer, which remains the best title;
even more strangely The Supreme Destroyers II does not contains a
complete drum solo (Over The Top): it misses more than 12 minutes which
are present in other releases of this concert.
The beginning of The Supreme Destroyers III is very distorted but
the sound quality improves as the recording progresses. IMHO the last
date in Landover is one of the best 1977 concerts, if not the best.
