        Wings Over America was an amazing live album, capturing the amazing rock show.  Not a week has gone by without me listening to songs from this album since 1976.  My parents had to mail the cassette of WOA to me in South Korea as I was serving in the military.  Before being shipped off to Korea, I was able to attend the WOA show in Fort Worth, Texas.  Never forget 1976; a great new album (At The Speed of Sound), a greater rock show, and finally a superb live lp.

          Did you get the Wings Over America box set? It's very cool...as all of them are! They even included a 76 tour program. Which probably devalues my original.

                    The programs were not available at the first show in Fort Worth.  I picked one up later in DC.  And yes, I have the WOA box set.  And yes, it was amazing.
