This week, we head back to December 11, 1977 as we dive into into an stellar soundboard recording / radio broadcast from The Stranger Tour at Nassau Coliseum on Long Island in New York.
We are joined by our friend and fellow musician J. Tom Hnatow. Tom and his friends warmly welcomed us to Lexington Kentucky last year to emcee a tribute concert for their late friend and friend of the podcast, Robby Cosenza.
