@Grubbsy Well, I used to live there. In fact , '72 was the first year I lived there. Do you happen to know what month this show was? I arrived there around Aug. 20th for college, and it was hotter than I'd ever experienced before, coming from Jersey lol But I wasn't at this show and don't remember them being there. Nice upload though. Where did you find the recording?
Lucky me happened to have found this recording freely over the net, along with the rest of my collection. As for the date: this was on June 28th, the last show of their US tour.
FANTASTIC!! From the husband: FANTASTIC!! Always interesting to hear the reactions from a US crowd (or really any) to such a beautiful classic when it was brand new! It caught on quick!! One of the group members of I believe the Platters, disclaimed that Elvis Presely referred to Stairway to Heaven as 'rather good'! Robert can still hit the high notes here still for the most part but hey, after at least 100 concerts with the smoking and hitting the notes right on it is going to change. SWEET!!!!
