The King Biscuit Flower Hour broadcasts an edited version of The Who's Dec. 4th 1973 Philadelphia concert in the U.S. and Canada. The broadcast is presented quadraphonically encoded for those with the appropriate equipment listening at home. After the show a sixty-second spot is aired announcing that The Who will perform for the first time at New York's Madison Square Garden that June playing four shows. The ad is the only promotion for these concerts. Tickets for all four shows sell out in fifteen hours.
This broadcast would become the source of many bootleg albums, most famously "Tales From The Who" with it's cover by William Stout
