Unique material, VPSQ (very poor sound quality) compared to records, but normal quality for bootleg cassettes. John deserves better (and royalties). There is a bootleg tape with the complete London gig sounding better. It looks like its from the same guys that did one of the Nick Drake Bootlegs "The Complete Home Recordings".
