This is the show that John McLaughlin has tried to convince CBS to release officially. Hopefully someday CBS will open their vaults and release the complete show! I've heard that a 2 disc vesion of this show was supposed to be released in 2006 but nothhing official' yet. When that does get released, I'll have to remove this from my tradeable discs --- so snatch it now!!
I've seen the venue billed as Cleveland Public Hall which may be right since there's a concert poster advertising it that way. (I can send you a jpg fif desired). But even concert posters can be wrong at times. Maybe it was supposed to be at the Public Hall originally but had to be moved? Another anomoly is that this show also circulates as 4 Ap 72. I'm fairly certain that this is an incorrect date since there's no record of MO playing Cleveland on that date.
