I'll just paste in a paragraph I wrote in my post for Part 2, since it still applies here:
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.
This big concert ended with a bunch of star performers. Linda Ronstadt dominated the first half of this part of the concert. During her set, she let her friend Nicolette Larson sing one song, while Larson and Rosemary Butler sang back-up on another song. Then Bette Midler just sang one song, acappella style, and also made a lot of funny comments.
Jackson Browne dominated the second half of this part of the concert. After performing three songs, he had Gary U.S. Bonds sing one song, "This Little Girl," which was a hit in 1981. Then Browne and Bonds sang a song together, "The Pretender." The song was written by Browne and released by him in 1975. But Bonds did a version on his 1981 album. After that, Tom Petty showed up to sing two songs, with Browne backing him up. Curiously, he sang two cover versions instead of any of his own songs. Perhaps that was because he was backed by Browne's band instead of the Heartbreakers, like he was used to.
At the very end, all the stars from earlier in the concert came back to sing two songs. First, Graham Nash led the others on his song "Teach Your Children." Then everyone sang "Give Peace a Chance," originally by John Lennon. But this version skipped the verses (with very hard to remember lyrics) and just repeated the chorus over and over again.
Two songs, "Blue Bayou" and "I Only Want to Be with You," have "[Edit]" in their titles. As I mentioned in my Part 1 write-up, I did a lot of editing on all the songs. But those two needed even more work on top of that. For instance, with "Blue Bayou" the first verse had the sound of some person near the taper talking through it. But luckily the verse was repeated later, so I patched in sections of that to get rid of that person's voice.
This album is an hour and eight minutes long.
Note that, for all the parts, the track numbers continue from the numbers in the previous part. That way, you can put all the songs together and listen to the whole thing at once if you want.

I got really lucky when it comes to this concert. I only found a handful of photos from the whole thing, but that was just enough to find good ones for four out of the five parts. This one shows Tom Petty (in front) and Jackson Browne during this part of the concert.
