Very nice sounding concert. I would tend to admit this is the complete concert. As they were not top of the bill, their set was quite short. I remember listening to the Tom Petty set that was quite short also. But I may be wrong as I was listening to the live broadcast on Dutch radio in those good old times.

I'd love to get the Golden Earring set, they have great songs and very good live albums as you like :)

Of course GE in their homeland must be great.

Contraryto my first comment, I have a MMEB 1977 Pinkpop version with 7 songs. Will send a link by email.
