TEN YEARS AFTER Oude RAI, Amsterdam, The Netherlands December 15. 1971
Taken from double vinyl album "Live In Amsterdam"
I sure do remember this concert. I wasn't there ( I was too young) but my sister went there. I was really jealous. I liked the band alot .
Big sis had the "Going Home "single and I had the Woodstock triplet and double album.
I ran into this 2 lp yeaaaaaaars later in a bootleg store.
Decades later I talked to a colleague, who used to be a lighting engineer (spark)in those days.. Turned out he was one of the Supertrouper electricians on this gig !
I made him very happy with a cd copy.
I gave my copy of the original vinyl to my sister for her birthday, ten years after I bought it.
I made her very happy too, I think.
