Updated MP3 link and NEW Flac Link Added!!! 

ORIGINAL NOTES: Received these from a trader in the UK around 1992 that was affiliated with the BBC. He claims all were from his masters that he recorded himself, making them 1st gen. copies. Gklainer transferred these from the original cassettes to .wav files in 1998.  Note that the set list from 1/28/75 is from the day before he recorded the BBC 1 Radio Live In Concert CD.

*Original Notes*
OK, here's an almost-upgrade for everyone. I grabbed a version of this FM broadcast off of Dime in December of 2009. It was decent except that it was missing the encore. What I offer here is a slightly better sound quality version, but not only includes the encore but also a cool, short interview with Robin right after he leaves the stage that was broadcast. Unfortunately, my version is missing Bridge of Sighs, whereas the first version had a complete(?) version of it. So, given all of that I wasn't sure how I was going to share this, so I decided to offer two slightly different versions:

96/24 version: My cassette version as-is with no edits (not included here)
44/16 version: My cassette version with Bridge of Sighs from the first source spliced in (didn't come out too bad, fairly seamless, but slightly off-key)

 

Track List:
01.[08:53] Too Rolling Stoned
02.[05:26] Secret Doors
03.[04:21] Day of the Eagle >
04.[11:07] Bridge of Sighs (different source)
05.[07:32] Passion
06.[08:05] No Time
07.[12:02] Daydream
08.[04:34] Bad Time To Put Me Down
09.[08:34] Rock Me, Baby
10.[05:07] Won't Even Think About You
11.[08:00] Little Bit of Sympathy
12.[03:50] Lady Love
13.[07:25] Into the Flame
14.[01:32] RT interview

 

Band:
Robin Trower: Guitar
