Enjoyed this ad ‘n concert clip. I saw Al Stewart and band with Peter Wood on keyboards when they toured Year Of The Cat at UCSC in Santa Cruz. It was in a small room and the 200 or so in the audience surrounded the band set up in the corner. Absolutely amazing show-and because it was sponsored by the university-tickets were only $2.00!
Must have been nice. Almost a private performance. UCSC is such a beautiful campus too.
