Live At The Keystone is a live concert recording by Man that is sold with the deluxe version of their Welsh Connection album.
It was recorded at The Keystone in Berkeley, California on 9th August 1976.
Greasy Truckers Party is a live album that features sets by Man, Hawkwind and Brinsley Schwarz
It was recorded at The Roundhouse in London on 13 February 1972.
As it’s available as a digital download that lets you choose what you have and what you don’t, I’m treating this as an album by each of the groups. These are three very different acts with Man playing psychedelic guitar rock like the Quicksilver Messenger Service and other San Francisco bands, Hawkwind with their heavy space rock and Brinsley Schwarz with their country based pub rock.
