One nite in June 1979, out in Hollywood, we got wind that Steve Hackett Tickets we going on sale at the Roxy in the morning. We waited out all night and when the box office opened the told us "the shows were canceled" (he played oct-1980)
But if we wanted we could buy tickets for Ian Hunter that was not annouced yet! So that is where this tape came from. This may be for completists only, but it is a very High energy show, and the only recording I have heard of the band doing "Laugh At Me" a Sonny Bono song.
