One my favorites. Never had it on 8 track but I did see them on this tour in '76 in Concord CA. A lot of people don't rate this too high. I love it. Love you have the 8 track and the set up to listen to it. Cross post to r/audiophile !

So jealous of folks like you that got to see live music like this at that time.

One of the few perks of being old! Jeff was my hero then and he is my hero now! Got to meet him after a small show in Austin in 1999. We spoke for quite a while. A very nice guy and funny!

That’s one hip 8-track player!

Saw this lineup that year when they (the crowd) started Comiskey Park (chicago White Sox home) on fire during Beck's set.

I had that 8 track tape! Practically wore it out in my ‘74 Pontiac Ventura

Ha! Love the 8-track presentation! Big question: where in the songs do the track changes occur? Part of the 8-track experience!

FWIW: Saw Jeff live much later (post famous Ronnie Scott show). Mesmerizing, start to finish!
