The info that came with this boot was that it was a rebroadcast of the 1970 Paris Theatre performance premiering songs from John Barleycorn Must Die. I have not compared this show with a different copy I have of the Paris Theatre 1970 gig so I can't be sure. At any rate this is a great sounding performance and recording. Chris Wood passed away July 12, 1983 of pneumonia at the age of 39. Jim Capaldi passed away January 28, 2005 at the age of 60 from stomach cancer.

Draftervoi's original notes:
The run-out groove writing etched into the vinyl says "NBC-DK-16A" and "NBC-DK-16B."
Note that the EBAY listing identified this record as Show #15 but the vinyl etching says it's Show #16.
While the Ebay listing said it had a cue sheet, it wasn't included...and for a $6.00 record, I wasn't going to complain.

Original EBAY listing had this information on it:

justdave's notes:
I removed all the interview snippets in between songs and added cross fades where needed.

Nice sounding recording from The Zac Brown Band during the tour to promote their third album Uncaged. The Zac Brown Band has been very successful having earned 55 award nominations and have won 8, including 2010's Best New Artist Grammy, usually a kiss of death award. Most groups/artists who win the Best New Artist Grammy fade away within a year of winning the award. The Zac Brown Band has hit the Billboard Country Music Chart 10 times with 8 of those singles going to #1. All 3 of their studio albums have been certified Platinum Records with their debut, The Foundation, being certified Triple Platinum. If your new to the Zac Brown Band I highly recommend this fine sounding recording to all fans of Country Music and Southern Rock everywhere.
