Comments: Includes the only known recording of "I'm a Reader and a Writer"
and the only known 1967-1977 era recording of "One Eye on the Future".
"Grand Hotel" offers a few more surprises.

Please upgrade my torrents where possible. I will have my seeds withdrawn if and when better recordings become available.
I am especially interested in acquiring additional material from this show or upgrading the sound quality. Please help if you can.

Watch for the next show in a few days when we will celebrate a PROCOL anniversary with another rare recording.

There's too many torrents and not enough time. but ...
STILL THERE'LL BE MORE
