I received this a while back unnamed and undated, and previously had it listed as 1978 filler, Venue Unknown. However I've now been given a lot more info about where it was recorded and also confirmation of the date. Apparently this was a free concert recorded by BRT , Belgium National TV, since then re-named  VRT, which was broadcast in three sections. VRT say that what we have here is just one of them,... so maybe someone out there has the others?

1978 May 18 Herentals Belgium Netepark

Jonathan with Leroy Radcliffe and Asa Brebner, both this and the show from the following night are really sharp recordings; neat that such early shows occasionally turn up in great condition.

The band introduction is after "New England"

The proper title for this one is "At my front door", although on stage in 1979 in Paris for the Chorus show, Jonathan himself first introduced it as "Crazy little Mama", before correcting himself. It's a cover of the biggest hit by The El Dorados, from 1955...
