OK, I've given this a listen and (confirming what I suspected from the tracklist) this is actually a concert from the 1976 tour, one of the most bootlegged MMEB albums in fact -- the Philadelphia Spectrum concert, published (without license) under several names, including "Wired", "Alive in America", and "The Roaring Spectrum".

Great concert, just not one from the date/venue claimed in the description, sadly. A bit disappointing due to the lack of concerts from the '78 tour, but one I think people should listen to if they haven't -- the synth solo in the excerpted Glorified Magnified during Captain Bobby Stout is one of my favorites of all time.

Ok, thanks for adding the information, this was sent to me as being from 1978.
