40 years on ............................................. An audience recording first listed here in 2012 by StPatric which I unfortunately missed and this recording is from a personal trade in the late 80s. Unfortunately it contains a number of flaws including multiple jumps at the start of several tracks and some wobble in others with the most noticeable in "Green shirt". It seems as if the original tape was edited to ty and fit into a limited frame, maybe trying to fit onto two C-60 cassettes? However, the really sad thing is that there isn't an exquisite recording of the New York show unlike the two from Bridgeport and New York on the 28th and 27th respectively and still available here courtesy of psychocaniac as these torrents _ http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=710849 http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=710903 Both of these are very highly recommended with the sound being of the highest quality. Back to my recording and there is a tape flip around the end of £From head to toe£ and the start of "Walk And Don't Look Back" and both the start and end of "All These Things" Elvis comments on problems the band has encountered with equipment failure at the ned of "Mystery Dance" and then thanks the crew before "Danger Zone" and promises to return with their own gear in the future to make up for the issues. A somewhat surprising choice of "Shipbuilding" as a final track draws this to a close - definitely not essential with no new performances and I'd recommend either of the other shows mentioned as far superior recordings.
