Recording comments
Disc One Notes
This is the 3rd known audience recording of Genesis from the start of their career
Cuts between some songs are present, sometimes interrupting stories.
Henry's sister is referred to as "henrietta" during this show, not cynthia
Disc 2 Notes:
Tracks 1-7 are mono but channel imbalance still existed and needed correction.
