Annotation

This LP is Incomplete. More than a few songs are missing, unlike the cover which shows a complete setlist. The sound is not as bright nor as upfront when compared to other boots we’ve listened and grown accustomed to on this date.

B3 Racing In The Street and D5 Point Blank are cut, C4 Santa Claus has the intro only, missing the song and F1/F2 Rosalita is cut in the middle.
C2 KSAN Radio, Tuscon, AZ 1978‐12‐13.
