Notes
This two-disc set is a wonderful snapshot of Paul's 1974 tour - the same tour that produced Live Rhymin'. The key difference is that this set features the entire show, including solo sets from Urubamba and The Jessy Dixon Singers.

The quality of this set is very good for an audience recording. This is likely due, in no small part, to the quiet nature of the audience. Everything on this set is very clear and very enjoyable.
