Still in pain

Does anyone have a copy of this show on CD? I heard it before and think it would be a great addition to a collection.

It would have been great to be at this show although it doesn't look like the setlist (provided by COBO) was much different from what I heard at Avery Fisher Hall in NYC/1977 or at Belmont Race Track in 1978.

I'm struck by Jimmy's playing it safe. No covers, nothing that wasn't from his soon to be "early must play list". He knew what he was doing but like the artist who did Margaritaville on Ellen, he plays it too safe, even now.

I agree with you about playing it safe..but he was definitely loos at this show....that's the thing about him.he has this laid back persona about him, but when he is on stage , to use his own words "I don't like surprises". Call it quality control I guess.
