Audience recording of the two-day performance at Chicago Stadium on April 7th and 9th of the 1977 US tour in Chicago, the third most populous city in the United States after New York and Los Angeles! (Chicago was the first consecutive performance in 1977) Although it had been released in the past, there were only a few and it was overwhelmingly popular overseas, so it was rarely seen and became a rare item, so this is a great release. . It has been upgraded with fewer cuts than the previous one. It was April 7th, and unfortunately it seems that it was not possible to record all the songs on this day. The band was in good shape, so there’s nothing I can do about it. You’ll understand this when you listen to the opening song “The Song Remains the Same”! Bonzo’s crazy drums and Page’s amazing guitar are packed in there. The bad luck continued, as the venue had to be vacated early for a playoff game for the local hockey team, the Chicago Blackhawks, so “In My Time Of Dying” and “Trampled Underfoot” were recorded on that day. I lost the set. Showco, who was in charge of the sound system, seemed to have worked hard to set up the venue on Saturday. On April 9th, Showco and his friends reinstalled the sound system that had been dismantled and performed a live performance, but the live performance ended midway due to Jimmy’s poor health. Is Chicago cursed? After “SICK AGAIN,” Jimmy starts playing “Since I’ve Been Loving You.” The band members thought it was “Nobody’s Fault But Mine,” so they couldn’t keep up with it, so they had to redo “Nobody’s Fault But Mine.” What happened? Jimmy? That’s right, Jimmy had FOOD POISONING. After a long discussion backstage at “Ten Years Gone,” manager Richard Cole announced that the show had been canceled. Unfortunately, the rescheduled show did not materialize. 2nd & 3rd Night of CHICAGO STADIUM DISC 1 tk01….. THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME tk02….. THE ROVER / SICK AGAIN tk03…..
