Notes:

On January 2-5, 1976 Tom played at The Main Point opening for Martin Mull, who also introduced Waits during this gig on the 4th which was broadcasted by WMMR. There was another ‘warm-up’ act as well (the Harbor Band) so that’s probably why Tom only played for half an hour.

At first I thought this was a mono recording, but it’s actually very narrow stereo. No pitch correcting was needed. Credit goes out to a friend of mine (who is a proper mastering engineer) for reducing an annoying high frequency tone heard on the tape.
