If you want a full explanation of what the concert was about, please read my write-up for Part 1. In that, I also explained about the sound quality issue. In short, the only known source for the whole concert is an audience bootleg. It didn't sound very good, so this concert recording hasn't been shared that much. But I could tell there was potential there, if I could get rid of most of the much. As I explained in detail in my write-up, I think I did get rid of most of it. It still doesn't have excellent sound, but it's pretty good, and worthy of being posted at my blog, where I have pretty high sound quality standards.
Now, switching to the music here, most of this Part 2 section is dominated by Crosby, Stills and Nash (CSN). Graham Nash already sang a song on his own in Part 1. Weirdly though, only two songs were performed by CSN here. Then Stephen Stills stayed on stage and performed three more songs on his own (with a back-up band), and then two more with Dave Mason joining in. (However, Mason could mostly be heard helping with lead guitar, not singing lead vocals.) The two songs with Mason weren't ones that Stills usually did with CSN. But the other three he did solo definitely were CSN standards. I would guess that CSN was going through tough times in the early 1980s, mainly due to David Crosby's excessive drug use. So Stills probably was more interested in his solo career.
On a different note, the Eagles broke up around 1980. But two members of the Eagles, Timothy B. Schmidt and Don Felder, sang an Eagles hit, "I Can't Tell You Why." Most Eagles songs were written and sung by other band members, but that was one that was mainly written and sung by Schmidt.
This album is 49 minutes long.
By the way, note that the track list numbering picks up where Part 1 left off. That way, you can easily listen to all of the songs from the entire concert in a row if you want to.
