LEW GOODMAN'S FAREWELL SHOW

On March 30, 1973 until early the next day Lew Goodman's final "Super Session" was broadcast live on WFUV—90.7 FM—in New York City. It had been on weekly since 1968 and evolved from a pure progressive rock show into one in which humor superseded the music.

Now, for the first time since its original monaural broadcast, in its 37th anniversary year, here is Lew Goodman's entire last show—digitally restored and in stereo (thanks to Neil Litt).
