One of the best live albums from one of my favorite duos. Good variety of tempos and tunes, enough stage banter to feel live but no so much that you feel the need to skip ahead.
Wikipedia correctly recognizes it as “the” concert in central park – recorded in front of a half million people in September 1981. It was actually a benefit for the park itself – and was filmed by HBO (it was both broadcast and sold on VHS/DVD).
My copy is a Columbia House Music Club Pressing (“Manufactured by Columbia House under License” on the rear jacket) – but not one I got in my derelict days as a member – rather I found it at Bull Moose Records in Portsmouth NH
