Opening concert of the American Jazz Tour 1978. This is the complete concert recording. Some parts are A- and highly enjoyable. It lacks some bass, but very enjoyable and clear sound. Quite unusual that they played Sheer Heart Attack only like two minutes long and then it changes fluently into Keep Yourself Alive. They also played Dreamer's Ball a bit more faster than they did later on the tour. Very nice versions of Let Me Entertain You and If You Can't Beat Them because they played them for the first time live on stage, so they are very simular to the album versions. CD copy from first generation cassette. Fat Bottomed Girls to God Save The Queen comes from the master cassettes. No copy errors. Not from mp3.

Comment:
A second audience source from Dallas 1978. Although the sound is distorted, it's still enjoyable. Recorded a bit closer to the stage and it has a nice punchy sound. It misses the first couple of songs and the recording fades in during the first part of Death On Two Legs. It's Late is cut and misses the last part, while Brighton Rock is heavily cut and features only the reprise and bits of the solo parts of Brian and Roger. No copy errors. Not from mp3.
