The concert, held on September 17th at the plush Amsterdam venue, was recorded originally for airing on Radio Hilversum. An hour of the recording was aired on Radio 2, consisting of "The Man - The Journey" suite. This was an early conceptual piece, which was never released in this form, although parts were later used elsewhere. It tells the story of 24 hours in the life of a man - sleeping and dreaming, getting up, going to work, and so on.

Many of you will be familiar with some of the songs performed - albeit in slightly different form, you got to hear the likes of Grantchester Meadows, Cymbaline, Biding My Time, Green Is The Colour, Pow R Toc H, and Careful With That Axe Eugene.
