This came from a torrent and I have the original files for the purests! Let me know if you want them! The last file is the track listing and more information about the show.
Boston, MA
Orpheum Theatre
Thursday, March 9th, 1978
Show Notes:
In April 2010 a audience recording surfaced of this show, completely unknown to exist before now. This show contains the only known performance of “Fool Button” (although it now appears likely that it was played more on this leg of the tour) as well as the only known performance of “Cowboy in the Jungle” (although it was likely played more on this leg of the tour as well) before 1997. This is also the earliest known performance of the then unreleased song “Morris Nightmare,” as well as just the second known performance of “The Last Line,” the other being June 20, 1978.

~~Visions of good times, that brought so much pleasure, makes me want to go back again!~~
Wow, this is nice. I was 16. I only wish I wasn't so busy listening to Tons of Boston, Foreigner, The Bee Gee's (disco in general), Bay City Rollers (yeah, so what! my then girlfriend now wife liked them!) to listen to him then. I remember Come Monday way back on the radio, I was thinkin' "what a stupid song, he's singing about shoes"! I was wicked young. I would love to have heard him live, in person then.
Oh well!
"Reading departure signs in some big airport
Reminds me of the places I've been.
Visions of good times that brought
so much pleasure
makes me want to go back again."
What a wonderful "gift" this was. Where has this been all these years? Cracks me up though that the fan noises have not change in 32 years. That guy who is always yelling WAHOOOOOOOOOO! at the top of his lungs was there in 1978 and he is still with us today. You can hear him in the background of every live recording ever made by Jimmy. What a phan!
Also, this concert took place just a month after the infamous Blizzard of '78 in Boston in February. It must have been a great break for people.
Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
