Hi folks,
I think it's pretty well established that Live at the Bataclan is from the Bataclan recording from that venue (presumably the 20th May 1973).
There seems to be some conflicting info about the Sheffield release though.
https://www.planetgong.co.uk/bazaar/...ield_ltd.shtml suggests it was recorded somewhere in France in the first half of 1973.
http://www.calyx-canterbury.fr/gong/chrono.html suggests it was recorded at Sheffield City Hall on 8th Oct 1973.
Here it states that the second track on the Greasy Trucker's LP was taken from the Sheffield set:

It also states that the first track was recorded at Tabarka, Tunisia in June 1973,
However this suggests the two tracks were recorded on 26th Oct in Paris and 9th Nov at Dingwalls:-

I'm guessing this is correct:-
Live at Sheffield 1974 was indeed recorded at Sheffield City Hall on 8th Oct 1973.
Greasy Truckers was recorded at Dingwalls on the Nov 1973 (General Flash...) & at Sheffield City Hall on 8th Oct 1973 (Part 32...) .
Unless I am mistaken, that Dingwalls track ("General Flash...") is still unavailable elsewhere.
I'm sure someone here (Aymeric?) can clarify!
