      The first US press was one LP with four tracks. The US 2 LP version is a subsequent pressing. Great album.

        In my opinion, the 10:45 "Light Up or Leave Me Alone" is Traffic at the top of their game every second of the track. This track alone is worth the price of ission, however, the entire album is a solid spin. Over 40 minutes worth of music divided by a mere 4 tracks. One of my favorite live albums of all time.
