TheCommish notes:
Here's a show that I grabbed back in Dec. 2006 when it was generously shared here on DIME by michaelmee.

Take note that this torrent includes my fixed version of track 11. The original track 11 FLAC file ran a little over 20 minutes but the last 5+ minutes of the track were just a glitch where you'd repeatedly hear the band thanking the audience. So the fixed version of track 11 now runs about 5 minutes shorter and does not have any of the repetition found in the original FLAC file.

I did not make any changes to the FLAC files for the first 10 tracks; they are exactly as I downloaded them in 2006.


michaelmee wrote in the original torrent:
"Here is a real good early show by Chicago that is a common one among traders of the band. I thought some here who do not collect Chicago might find this one interesting as they open with the Beatles tune not to mention that fact that the great Terry Kath is present.

Audio quality is pretty good for a audience recording of this vintage."
