In 1976 after successfully touring America and Europe, Patti Smith returned to the studio and recorded
her second album titled ìEthiopia Radio.î Patti was no stranger to the New York music scene and her
Bottom Line shows were legendary. In those days the artist usually did two shows and several nights at
the same venue. On the 26th of Novemember 1976, Patti Smith performed with special guests Bruce Springsteen
on guitar and piano and John Cale also on piano. John Cale co-founded the Velvet Underground, is a solo
performer in his own right and produced many great albums, including Patti Smithís ìHorses.î This is the
late show coming from original master tapes.
Both shows include original photos from the show!
Thanks once again to Mr Anonymous for digging up these classic shows with never before seen photos!
*Are there any aficionados that can give us the title of track 2 on disc one?
