    Absolutely a gem. This is, now that I've found it, one of my favorite Billy concerts along with the BBC one which I believe is several years earlier with just his original core band augmented here by Cannata and Emerson. That core band was a real fit I always thought, though Cannata became quite indispensable I'd have to say. I guess Mark Riveria at some point took Cannata's place while it seems the others were retired as Billy's band, much to many of us fan's regret. RIP Doug, you are forever missed. Liberty you are the John Bonham of propelling Billy into more of a rocker and for that I still say you are the best drummer Billy ever had.

    Thanks for this. He’s obviously massively talented, and I’ve been a fan for years, but Liberty’s stories in the doc “Hired Guns” about him has really shaded my opinion of him as a person. I was a young teenager when this concert happened, and ironically I’m from Allentown, PA. But I can’t deny that his music has brought me many hours of joy and for that I’m thankful. Seeing him here (especially after the recent release of the ‘Turn The Lights Back On’ video) is very moving.

    please upload the original source of this and the old grey whistle test from 1978. I feel the audio of the restored clips is compressed and there is a huge volume gap between the two. you can hear this in all the gaps of the original source and the official clips. when the officially remastered it they dialed down the entertainer half way though and completely squashed the dynamics and made the song quieter. beautiful work with what you've done. it looks fantastic and sounds fantastic but i would love the original of both please :)

      I think that yes, but it's rare. The HD release is EXACTLY the same as 1977, so, that's rare. Same edit, same songs, but the only think is that this is in HD. Maybe the soundboard is in somewhere, but this can be only recorded as a promo, like Sparks Club in 1981.
