Earls Court '77

Go for Earls Court '77!!!

I'm not very well versed in these sort of things but the one that struck me most is the Osaka 85 bootleg I've recently downloaded from here.

The audience was superb, the recording was excellent, I'd give it a 10.
but its not the osaka show
"We give him the biggest send off in history".
Oh, well that's too bad. What show was it then?
Some of my favourites:

Knebworth ´86
Vienna ´86 21/07/86 - Great sound!
Toyko 13/2/1981 (Japanese Heroes)
London 8/12/1980 (Standing on the Arena)
Tokyo 19/4/1975 (Great King Hangman)
