In the mid-1970s the Strawbs were on a roll in the United States. The band had had five consecutive albums on the Billboard charts between 1972 and 1975, with ‘Hero and Heroine’ and ‘Ghosts’ between them selling over half a million copies. In 1975 Strawbs set out on their first US headline tour.

‘NY ’75’ was recorded live in front of a wildly enthusiastic audience at the legendary Calderone Theatre on Long Island, just half an hour from the centre of Manhattan. This is the first release of this concert on CD.
