Comments: Sounds just a little distant, but turn up the volume and it's great. The improvisation in "Ashes Are Burning" by John Tout and Jon Camp is really worth a listen. The band sounds really tight and thoroughly enjoying themselves.

A note on the date of the concert: This was traded to me as "November 1977". My reasons for putting it at 7 June 75 are: (1) the setlist includes nothing from "Novella"; (2) Jon Camp announces in his introduction to "Ocean Gypsy" that the band is putting on concerts at Carnegie Hall soon (June 20-22 1975) and that "Scheherazade & Other Stories" would be released at the end of the month (in fact, it was released in July 1975); and (3) the Concert Listing page on the Northern Lights website listed a concert at this venue on 7 June 75 (with support act Mike Quatro - explaining the brevity of the set).
