Venue: The Spectrum, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, Tuesday, December 4, 1973
Source: Soundboard or possibly audience
Comments: This show has appeared on the market under several different titles (see
above). Taken from the U.S. FM radio broadcast of the King Biscuit Flower Hour,
this LP is the one that started it all. A rumor has been circulating since at least
summer 1998 that this may be one of a series of live Who concerts slated for legit-
imate release. Thus far, it remains a rumor. Great cover by William Stout who has
done a number of covers for Who bootlegs. Note the bottom of the left side of the
spine on this LP cover. It has a black line at the bottom only. This may lead one to
believe this cover has been copied with an attempt to either omit the black border
from the previous cover, or the makers of this cover were not able to include all of the
black border. There may be 2 tracks mixed in from the December 6th Capitol Center
show as well. (I believe the last 2 tracks). The sound quality varies on many of these
shows. Allegedly a Soundboard recording, many recordings contain noticeable aud-
ience chatter and for a board recording, some of these leave a fair amount to be de-
sired. Excellent sound of these recordings of this show appear to be Tales From
The Who (CD) (Super Sonic SS 200021). Compare with the titles listed
above.
