According to the stage introduction, this was Richard & Linda's U.S. debut; in fact there was a show in Philadelphia two days prior, and an audience tape to prove it. This is a partial soundboard recording, with the bootleg label omitting Dimming Of The Day and the encores (Down Where The Drunkards Roll/Danny Boy/Dargai/High School Confidential) due to space constraints.

I've since obtained a copy of the complete soundboard, so once I've had a chance to compare sound quality I'll probably remove this one from my list.
