Leo Sayer: Live at Paul's Mall, Boston, March 9 1975.

If like me, you grew up outside the West, you probably know Leo Sayer as that guy who sang the highly ubiquitous 70s hit song, "When I Need You". And if it freaked you out to have a song your mum, renegade Aunt, and dog liked to hum along to, you probably gave up on Sayer in the 70s and swore off hit radio around the same time. This set might just change your mind and make you seek out those early Sayer records still lying in your parent's basement. I'm not sure what the collective call on Sayer is out there, but this guy was more than just a studio-polished pop hack - this live set shows him to be a consummate performer backed by a solid band. Very clean sound, delivered by a charming musician.
