1973-03-02 - BERKELEY COMMUNITY THEATRE, BERKELEY, CA LOST IN THE FLOOD (start cut, 4.57) / SPIRIT IN THE NIGHT (4.58) / WILD BILLY'S CIRCUS STORY (4.48) / BISHOP DANCED (4.01) / DOES THIS BUS STOP AT 82ND STREET? (5.13) / BLINDED BY THE LIGHT (5.30) / THUNDERCRACK (10.43) / annoucements

One show, 8.00pm, double bill, with Springsteen and band opening for headliners Blood, Sweat & Tears. Ironically Bill Graham, who'd nearly signed Bruce/Steel Mill three years earlier, organised this concert. The above-mentioned setlist derives from an excellent quality soundboard recording that began circulating in the mid-1990s. Given Bruce's restricted performing time as the opening act, the circulating audio is likely to represent the complete performance. The circulating audio is missing the opening seconds of "Lost In The Flood". Available on the CDs 'Prodigal Son' (Crystal Cat), 'Before The Flood' (CU) and in improved quality 'On The Road Night' (Crystal Cat).

 

 

 

My copy comes from a FLAC download of "On The Road Night" from Crystal Cat. I don't have this bootleg in a complete form as the radio show completing this set is available in better quality elsewhere.
