Review : Broadcast on WMMR radio in Philadelphia, PA, this show is perhaps one of the most legendary shows of Bruce's career. Bruce is introduced by Ed Sciaky to start the broadcast. Suki Lahav played violin and added backing vocals on several tracks during this period, most notably "Incident on 57th Street." In fact, this may be the definitive version of "Incident on 57th Street." This was probably one of the best shows of the period, certiainly one of the longest. Another note about "Incident" is that during the closing bars of the song a police siren can be heard, which is very fitting. This was the premiere of "Thunder Road," actually called "Wings For Wheels" at this time, as well as "Back In The USA" and "Mountain Of Love." Exquisite sound quality.
