The 9 March 1976 show only made it through the first two songs before Keith Moon passed out and the show was stopped. The show was then re-scheduled for 1 April 1976.

This recording includes the two songs from 9 March 1976, as well as the first 70 minutes of the 1 April 1976 performance.

The included newspaper scans are interesting, one blaming Keith's passing out on the flu, and another giving a glowing review of the re-scheduled performance.
