COMMENTS:
This vinyl rip, kindly shared by Silkcut1978 on IORR ( http://www.iorr.org/talk/read.php?2,1459039,page=1 ) , features the 2nd Oshawa show of 1979; both the performance by Ronnie's band; New Barbarians; and the Rolling Stones. Unlike the well-known "Blind Date Revisited" CD-bootlegs (which feature a SBD recording of this show), this vinyl features the whole glorious show in EXCELLENT audience quality. So, it's a different listening experience.

PERFORMANCE:
Not for beginners. It's extremely ragged. But also, it's great fun - with the band being so loose and out of it. Almost like a private Rolling Stones party. Bill Wyman himself wrote that the "2nd show was a lot better than the 1st show". Therefore, I'm pretty happy about the 1st performance not being available in listenable quality. (It IS available in real poor quality though, on the LP "Place Aux Dames, Shades & Canes" )
