The band, announced by Ray as "The foundation of our group" takes a bow (video still). |
The instrumental (#1) was recorded later for the album My Kind Of Jazz Part III (1975); in December '72 another live performance of the tune was filmed in Tel Aviv.
The show was aired in Denmark on August 8, 1978 (or was this a corruption for 1973, as the new DR-page seems to imply?), under the title 'The Genius koncert'.
Historic Films (file Dr-8) archived a 1 h 47 m copy dated 1 March (sic!) 1972. For a radio interview by Swedish national radio dated on or around 1 March 1972 (which may be a corruption for October 10 as well), listen here.
