"A few weeks ago, Fleet-Wood Mac day-booed their new album, and introduced a song...called Rhiannon..." Every time I watch it, I laugh for about a minute...what the hell is day-booed!?!?!

That's Helen Reddy saying "debuted."
Your date question ('75 or '76) is vexing. I wish someone knew just when the Midnight Special performances (four of them that I know of) were recorded. The April '76 date is a broadcast date, not a performance date. If Reddy is correct, she refers to the album being released "a few weeks ago," which would put the performance in August or September (1975). But I have trouble believing it's as old as that. Remember the pics of the Balboa Stadium show (August 31) floating around, or even the late summer video of the Landover show? Stevie & Chris had not yet started wearing their flashy black stage attire.
