Patti Smith Group/NJ, USA 1978 & more

~ A coupling recording of extremely rare new excavated sound sources from the tour held after the release of the album “EASTER” in 1978 when appearing at festivals! ! ~ Patti Smith, whose single “Because The Night” from her third album “EASTER” released in March 1978 became a hit in the top 10 in the United States and attracted attention from all over the world, was featured in the 2017 2019 2018 event. A new excavated treasured sound source that combines live performances from two event appearances is now available! First of all, the live performance at the benefit gig held in New Jersey on May 23, 1978 is recorded as a good monaural audience recording. Although it is monaural, it is recorded very well-balanced and clear, including vocals. He will appear as the headliner of this event, and although his set is short, you can enjoy a powerful performance including a rare cover of “You Light Up My Life”! And the second half is a good stereo audience recording of the live performance at Reading Festival on August 27th of the same year. It is a shame that only 6 of the 14 songs played on this day are recorded, but the sound source that was broadcast on the radio in Italy is used, and the vocals are loud and clear and are recorded with good sound quality. There are comments by the radio DJ between the songs, and they also play a cover of James Brown’s “It’s A Man’s Man’s Man’s World”! 01.Paul Simon introduction 02.Babelogue 03.Rock ‘n’ Roll Nigger 04.Privilege (Set Me Free) 05.Till Victory 06.The Kids Are Alright 07.You Light Up My Life 08.Because The Night 09.Time Is On My Side 10.25th Floor 11.Rock ‘n’ Roll Nigger 12.It’s A Man’s Man’s Man’s World 13.So You Want To Be (A Rock ‘n’ Roll Star) 14.25th Floor 15.Because The Night 16.My Generation 17.Interview after concert
