Amazingly, this complete show - a highlight of Billy's career - was
never professionally bootlegged. I've seen traders rate this one from
"B" to "A+" most likely due to different master tape sources. This
version was transferred in January 2002 by Bennett directly from his
terrific master cassette that captured the original WNEW broadcast of
the show. This show has always been one of my favorites and in February
2003 I finally got around to remastering it. Basically, I removed the
WNEW station identifications (three), removed the inane disc jockey
chatter (six instances!), fixed the transition between the cassette tape
flips and boosted the volume as well as performed a few other minor
edits. You can now enjoy the concert as it was meant to be enjoyed -
without interruption.
