    I was the video recording engineer for this concert at the Atlanta Civic Center in 1977. After the show, Linda and her band knocked on the door (!) of my little tape truck and asked if they could watch the tape, so they and I sat together and watched the show. Linda is so unassuming and such a beautiful person. I remember talking to Don Grolnick, the piano player, who played the show with a broken hand. It was a great show, and a great memory for me, but I never thought this recording would live on 40+ years later.

    Here in Tucson, client tells me he was a plumber 1980 and was at a house doing his thing and the lady of the house says "Oh, you like my daughters music" he was singing along to music in the background. Was Linda's mother and he was blown away, He has since passed away. Personally saw her in early 1980's in concert. What a special moment.
