Rockshow from 1976 on Blu-ray available this Tuesday the 11th. This is the long version (125 minutes) scoped from 4 shows in the Wings Over America tour (Seattle, New York and L.A. (2)). Taken from a 35mm negative, picture is supposedly decent considering the vintage. Audio is a step above the video. A bit pricey at $25 but includes a digibook. A little history I'll definitely own come next week. Full review from Jeffrey Kauffman (who's reviews I find trustworthy) over on Blu-ray.com.

    If there's rock show at the Concertgebow
    They're got long hair at the Madison Square
    You've got Rock And Roll at the Hollywood Bowl
    We'll be there, ooh yeah
    I got static in my head
    The reflected sound of everything

    Not many, been a long time. The Kingdome was not known for SQ, basically a huge cement cave. I do remember, being in the 300 level the delay in what you saw vs what you heard was very strange. It was a good show though.
