The above-mentioned nine-song setlist (believed to be in the proper sequence) is taken from circulating audio that has been sourced from home tapings of radio broadcasts. All nine recordings can be found on the two-CD boot 'Liberty Hall' (Mistral). The original tapers utilized modest recording equipment, so the sound quality is good but not brilliant. Prior to "Rosalita (Come Out Tonight)" someone in the crowd requests “The Fever” - Bruce doesn't perform it at this show but promises the crowd that he’ll work up a band arrangement and play it the next time he is in Houston. It seems Bruce accelerated that promise, as he surprises everyone by performing a semi-band version at the late show the following night. "For You" is the solo piano version. Even though there are only nine songs in this setlist, most of the performances during this show are quite extended versions. With a running time of about 90 minutes (depending on between-song edits) this is most likely the complete show, although there are edit points between some songs so it is possible that a couple of additional songs were performed but are not circulating. Comments Springsteen makes during the show relating to his March 9 afternoon in-station acoustic performance at KLOL-FM prove this audio is also from March 9. Other comments made by Bruce strongly point to this being the second show on March 9. There is no circulating audio from this first (early) show. There is still confusion about whether this night’s show was simulcast live by KLOL-FM or whether the show was taped only for later use. Current evidence suggests this show wasn’t simulcast but instead was first broadcast in November 1974 to promote Springsteen’s later Texas tour. There is also some evidence that the material was broadcast disjointed in November of 1974, rather than in one continuous program segment. from Killing Floor: Material here was taken from a 10LP Bandido records Box set - 50 copies only. It appears to have been rebooted on "The Lone Star Comes Back to Texas" (Black Cat Records version). Transferred by cre001 Edited by hrubesh Hope you Enjoy hrubesh
