1. "Live at Leeds" — The Who
2. "Stop Making Sense" — Talking Heads
3. "Frampton Comes Alive!" — Peter Frampton
4. "Secret World Live" — Peter Gabriel
5. "The Song Remains the Same" — Led Zeppelin

b. Madison Square Garden, New York
c. Pantages Theater, Los Angeles
d. Winterland Ballroom, San Francisco
e. Hammersmith Odeon, London
f. University of Leeds, Leeds England

* "Live" is a relative term. The liner notes for the Dire Straits album claim "no re-recordings or overdubs of any kind." Peter Gabriel, on the other hand, admits to plenty of post-show tinkering.
