I was at this gig, I lived in Packer Park, South Philly, a few blocks from this gig at the old JFK Stadium. I never saw so many people in my area before this or since then! 150,000 plus rockin' souls!
Just an amazing performance! And Albert Collins as an added bonus, gotta love that man, goes out with a capo on the 7th fret, and still delivers an amazing solo. I can't think of many guitarists who can eliminate three quaters of their fretboard and still do a solo like that. Add that to Thorogood's slide playing, and you got one hell of a performance, love this!!

@TekMaramao Perhaps George was on Stage in Philadelphia, when European "specialities" were broadcasted..............
