Notes:
There are 2 versions of this boot. The source of this one is a direct transfer from the original LP. The other is from the Japanese bootleg CD, which is probably taken from the LP, but clearly had some processing to bring up the volume and brighten the EQ. Unfortunately, the Japanese CD version is clipped on the left channel, [although a test for clipping demonstrates none in Audition - goody.]

On the front cover, the LP is titled "THE METERS at Rozy's"
On the rear cover, the title is listed as "The Meters - Live at Rozy's"
This was released on LP in 1981 or 82. For many years, the Meters
themselves called this one of the best live recordings of the band.
(Of course, this was long before the days of sharing via Bittorrent!
Lots of good live recordings have shown up thanks to the ease of
sharing over the internet, but I would still label this one a classic!)
The show was reissued on CD (in a mini-LP sleeve) in Japan (in 2009.)
A similar remaster of the CD is also separately available, concurrent with the release of this edition.
The show is currently available on iTunes, despite being an unauthorized release.
