Today we have a brand new / old Al Stewart recording. I listened to each track to figure out the set list.

During the 80's, Stewart released "24 Carrots"(1980) and his first live album "Live Indian Summer" (1981),

While "24 Carrots" did produce a No. 24 single with "Midnight Rocks", the album sold less than Al's previous 2 albums..

After those releases, Stewart was dropped by Arista and his popularity declined.

Despite his lower profile and waning commercial success, Al continued to tour the world, record albums, and maintain a loyal fanbase.

There was a four-year gap between his next two albums, the highly political "Russians and Americans" (1984) and the upbeat pop-oriented

"Last Days of the Century" (1988), which appeared on smaller labels and had lower sales than his previous works.

A big thank you goes to Tape Man Joe and to george14k, for making this available.

Check samples for quality.
