The tape with the audience recording of this concert was released for the first time in 1994 in CD: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q5XTYWyYgdKXp5Y No soundboard recording at the moment. Bootleg videotape with filmed partial show from super 8mm was known early 80's or late 70's; listed in the book "Jailhouse Rock" by Lee Cotten in 1983. Straight Arrow went back to the original cassette and restored it from scratch an put in CD in 2017 kzbin.info/www/bejne/joW3eXukZqllndU

The Sportatorium was really, really far out in the boonies next to a racetrack out far from any town. My family was the first to move out there in 1992 when they started developing and I remember being 12 years old and riding my bike with my buddies around the then closed down sportatorium. I looked at it in awe, wondering how they could stop using such a huge arena. We wanted to sneak in but there was always one guy that hung out there just watching the place. The 1/4 mile racetrack was still in use at this time but after a couple years and 100's of homes being built, the owners complained of friday night races and the place was shut down. BTW, my mom was supposed to go to this concert but my father wouldn't let her so she missed it. They are divorced. haha Now when you drive by where the track and sportatorium were, you will not find anything but a shopping plaza. Erased from history.
