Review

    * the venue has been confused for a long time; a "Stardust Club" infact never existed in Exeter. The actual venue was the Great Hall at the University of Exeter, confirmed by people having attended the concert.
    * the show was filmed, as a part of the show, covering "Them Belly Full" to "Roots, Rock, Reggae", has been aired in Italy. A complete video exists in some vaults.
    * the complete show has been liberated on bootlegs like "That Rasta Feeling" and "Charming Haze".
    * encore break after "Roots, Rock, Reggae".

Review

    * Marley's last concert before going to exile in London and coming back for the One Love Peace Concert (see also 1978-04-22).
    * "Crazy Baldhead" is heavily cut, fading in at the end of the song
    * only known live performance of "Smile Jamaica" and "Keep On Moving".
    * rare live performance of "Jah Live".
    * members of Third World were Marley's band for that concert.
    * during "War" Marley shows his injuries to the audience.
