Yep, it's a boot from the BBC transcription disc of which there are
at most 24 vinyl copies. The Windsong disc appears to be from the same
concert but is a different mix and with slight edits. AFAIK, the date on
the disc is neither the date of the gig nor the broadcast date. Over to
Bernard for more info on this...

The BBC Transcription disc is in a plain yellow sleeve and so the
pictures were added by the bootlegger.
