Most likely this is from The Savoy on Grant Ave. where Robert caused a big splash when he appeared, doing two shows a night for two nights. (I saw three of them...). I would thought this occurred in 1976 but I don't know the real date.
Right around then, Graham Parker and The Rumour also made their first SF appearance at the same venue, also broadcast by KSAN.
I have his '76 US tour date. According to it, The Savoy shows are April 6th & 7th 1976.
mmmm, it's possible KSAN broadcast date is 1977 (cause i'm sure of it), but the show if from 76'....i have many KSAN tapes and i'm sure about the dates cause i got all of them from the masters of a friend of mine that was working there from 75 till 81....in fact the graham parker, the hoodoo rd, some cipollina and some others i uploaded in the last 3 years comes all from this friend...
I also have this on one very old cassette, labelled simply "S.F., Spring 1976" if this helps. Rover might be right. Pity I still can't download with a dang, would love an upgrade.
Hey Fabio, this looks awesome. You sir, once again confirm that you are indeed a man among boys on this site!
Like many others here, I just love the early, funky Robert Palmer material. I can't wait to get home to download this puppy.
And let me tell you how grateful I am to your friend who's supplied you with these great shows. I continue to seed that '76 Graham Parker show of yours that I reseeded a while back, and I really dig those Hoodoo Rhythm Devils shows that you'd put up.
As if I haven't said it enough already, THANK YOU very much, my friend! I raise a glass of the finest American beer in your honor!
In 1976, in a back room here, many great or soon to be great attractions played here including but not limited to: The Ramones, Graham Parker, Robert Palmer, and Southside Johnny. Some great Bluesman played here as well such as Jimmy Reed and Muddy Waters.
He was at the Bottom Line in NYC on April 20 & 21, 1976 to support "Pressure Drop", along with Gallagher and Lyle. He did not appear in 1975 or 1977, so the KSAN broadcast might have been recorded in 1976 and aired in 1977.
