It is actually the Sausalito Record Plant. If you listen to the very beginning of Big Apple Encounters you will hear Shauna announce she is from KMET. That was a Los Angeles FM rock station.

So, your issue is with Majestic Rock Records who packaged & released Big Apple Encounters. They got the city wrong. (What incompetent jug-heads!!) This is typical of UFO's lifelong string of bad luck. They were plagued with piss-poor management and record company incompetence---hence their lack of well-deserved international superstardom.

The "version" here at the Vault has one more track than the cd release. It has Come On Everybody.

I agree, the cd version has much better sound quality.

The show as a whole is rather disappointing due to Schenker's un-remarkable performance. The poor bloke has admitted he used to suffer from terrible stage fright. I don't know if his nerves themselves are responsible for his sometimes less than stellar performances or whether it was the booze & drugs used as a means to steady his nerves.

You'll never hear him in better shape with UFO than on the magnificent Strangers In The Night album. The greatest live album of the 20th century.
