NoteFlaws:
First show
1. Splice in "Phase Dance" at 2:13.
2. Sound breaks up in "Phase Dance" 2:13 to 2:23.
3. Bad splice before "Wrong Is Right" -- initial drumroll repeats (sounds
like a splice overlap).

Second show
1. Clipping distortion during opening seconds of "Phase Dance".
2. Very brief dropout in "Phase Dance" at 9:17.
3. Pop in "Unity Village" at 3:19.
I also have the remastered compilation of both shows (MAAP 4) as 1 SHN.

The 'Watercolors' LP Was in release at this time, and many of the tunes to later appear on the 'white album' were road-refined during this period. Material also includes PMG versions of tunes from "Bright Size Life," The Gary Burton Quartet's "Passengers," And others. Only three songs were performed in both shows that night ("Phase Dance," Pat's solo guitar piece, And "Jaco").

This is one of the first performances of Pat Metheny Group and includes early versions of songs that eventually appear on the first Pat Metheny Group album. Pat introduces "Phase Dance" As "a song Lyle Mays and i wrote together a few weeks ago". Pat's parents were in the audience and he dedicates "Nacada" to his mother.
