"TWO shows, with Springsteen headlining. Two or three local bands (names unverified) acted as the undercards. This was an unusual show structure, as the 1st show took place during the day but the 2nd show was not until much later in the evening. It is likely that the 2nd show is the source of the circulating audience recording. It should be noted that this Roxy Theatre in Manayunk was/is NOT the same venue as the more well-known, up-market Roxy Theatre 10 miles away in the heart of downtown Philadelphia. Advanced ticket sales were slow, which necessitated Bruce plugging the gig the previous 3 nights at his My Fathers Place residency. Bruce can be heard twice thanking the crowd for traveling to (in Bruce's words) "this God-forsaken place" to support him. The above-mentioned setlist is taken from an audience recording of only fair sound quality, although slightly better during the slower songs. This audio has continuity (there was no set break intermission) and captures the complete 11-song, 90-minute performance. "You Mean So Much To Me" is cut and missing its final 2 minutes. Albee Tellone guests on baritone sax on "E Street Shuffle", as he did during most of the Sept-Dec 1973 gigs. "For You" is the slow version with Bruce on piano. "Thundercrack" includes an exceptionally long band-introduction segment. Available via the CDR ‘ELECTRIC SURGES FREE’. "
