Todd Rundgren & Utopia
The Palladium NYC
February 16th 1979

This was a benefit concert for Indochinese refugees.
The recording is sourced from a broadcast by WNEW.
Todd and Blue Öyster Cult headlined the event.
Numerous audio issues, both real and imagined,
were ironed out to varying degrees of success.
There is a cut in Black Maria which I've attempted to disguise.
A very spirited performance from Todd and Utopia
with nice contributions from Meat Loaf and Rick Derringer.
Two songs each from David Johansen and BÖC are the icing on the cake.

Titus

Utopia
Oxford Polytechnic, UK
January 25th 1977

A nice slice of Ra era Utopia.
I used to have a vinyl copy of this back in the day.
It's 45 minute duration probably harks back to that.
I'm not sure of the source but the sound quality is ok.
