This show comes from a great but short lived series that ran on ABC-TV circa 1973-75. Since this is way before stereo TV, you could watch the visual portion on TV, and they would simulcast on certain FM stations the stereo sound. While the sound and mixes are primitive by today's standards, they weren't too bad for the times.

The BBA was also broadcast on June 8, 1973. Many of the In Concerts were "staged" and not just a portion of an actual full concert performance. This was probably done at the Santa Monica Civic some time between April 26 and May 7, 1973 during the west coast portion of their tour. "Jeff's Book" suggests that these were the only two tracks played. The T-Rex portion of this broadcast was supposedly recorded on May 1, 1973 at the Santa Monica Civic during a specially arranged taping.
