I was actually at this concert at Radio City Music Hall, but I don't remember much as a classmate of mine and I got convinced (by a soda attendant, no less!) that Mr. Taylor himself would come out and see us. We waited most of the show there. Oh, those days of misspent youth! At least she was nice to look at... 

It's funny how things come around. I had torrented part two of this show a while back. I hadn't seen a copy of part one since the early 1970's, but I attended a local record convention about a month ago and there it was, along with another copy of part two. Fortunately the record was in fairly good condition and the pressing wasn't too terrible. It's now been combined with the second set to make a complete show. If you still have the second set you can dump it into the second LP folder and it will speed your download. I'd have to rate the show right up there with James' best, and the recording at about an 8 out of 10. It's a really well-done performance. For some strange reason LP2 required major speed correction, but LP1 was fine.
