This is a recording of Rocket From the Tombs Show at the Agora Ballroom in Cleveland, Ohio on May 5, 1975. This was one of the only recordings of the band that was known about and heavily bootlegged until the release of The Day the Earth Met the Rocket from the Tombs. This show was done with WMMS 101 FM and was called the Heavy Metal Showcase. 5 of the songs were professionally recorded. Tracks 4, 7 and 8 were likely 3 of the 5 tracks professionally recorded. It’s unclear if all of the show was broadcasted on WMMS but at least tracks 7 and 8 were broadcasted on May 11, 1975. This show marks the earliest if not the first live performance of the song Final Solution. This show would also mark the first and only performance Don Evans would do with the band. Evans had only joined the band about a week prior to this show. This recording was made up from 3 separate copies of this show. The image of the cassette tape is of Craig Bell's personal copy of this show. Tracks 4, 7, and 8 (only the first half) would officially be released on The Day the Earth Met the Rocket from the Tombs.
