Of the more than a hundred live shows I've seen that was my all-time favorite concert. Beck, Ten Years After, Moody Blues, Outlaw Blues Band. Beck played till around 2:30am. Amazing show.

Great photo, one of the cool things about it is that that even though they are playing in front of 100,000 people their stage set up is pretty basic, not ostentatious (no floating risers, fireworks, lazers etc) ... pretty much what you would see in any bar or club anywhere.

Or what you would see as an opening act set up in front of the other band(s). Doesn't look like they needed lights and hopefully had full pa.....
Great pic though!!!

When I saw (& heard!) the Doors at U of B in CT in '68, during the performance, Jim slammed himself down on the stage, singing "Persian night!"...just like the pic above.
