These live performances have a live-in-studio feel, and aren't nearly as loud as a live show would be.

Thanks goldustsongbird!
I've said this before, but I think most of her early vocals problems were because of the equipment. On several early FM bootlegs, she complained about the monitors. If you listen to her Chicken Shack studio/BBC recordings, her voice sounds very, very good. It would seem those early live FM vocal problems eventually extended into the studio..."Morning Rain" & "Homeward Bound". By Penguin & Mystery To Me, she had sorted things out & her voice sounded great again.
