This LP was recorded in Boston for FM radio during their Autumn tour and features the hit singles "Burlesque", "My Friend The Sun", and "The Weaver's Answer". In addition to selected album tracks there is also a bonus recording of "A Song For Me", made for French TV at Olympic Studios. Comes with full credits and sleeve notes. Very good sound quality throughout. Recorded live at The Music Hall, Boston September 28th, 1972, except the third track on side two recorded for Rockenstock French TV, January 11th, 1972.

"This album begins with a stalwart of the live show and is the most played of any Family song on the radio, 'Weaver's Answer.' John Whitney and Roger Chapman were writing separately as well as Rik Gretch. What results is much like a Grateful Dead studio album: songs that did not really sound great there but were transformed by public performance. 'Second Generation Woman' sounds like any other band except Family, and of the slower songs, 'How-Hi-The-Li' is a must. The lack of live albums by this band means that one needs to have the studio albums to capture the joys of their sound. Well worth having in your collection even if it is only for 'Weaver's Answer.'" 180 gram virgin vinyl. Limited edition of 1000 copies. We're told this is the last ever reissue to come out on the Tapestry label (putting Liechtenstein on the map since early 2007!).
