(I don't know if this is a complete sunday lineup,
or maybe the 3rd day of the show was shortened
due to lousy weather that year.
that is likely, since the 8/22/1975 HW appearance here
was considerably longer. (close to 110 min.)
the beginning of this recording is apparently in here,
although it is also likely that the encore of this show
is missing (unless they didn't get to play one)
if there was one, sounds like this is likely
close to complete, up until the encore.
