I'm going post this just in case someone comes along this page and is curious to know what this is all about. It's definitely super rare and cost me an arm and a leg and more to purchase. I thought it just might be like some other brilliant overlooked funky fusion mid-70s albums since really there was nothing to go by online but it turns out that the first three sides are orchestral composed music in a variety of styles some of which are silly or downright annoying, while the last side which featured the great Roger Nichols is a rehash of the old songs he made with Roger Williams, great as those songs were, and exemplary of the decade.
It's databased here. The description:
Concert in honor of Santa Monica's One hundredth Birthday. Thursday, March 13 and Friday, March 14, 7:30 p.m. Santa Monica Civic Auditorium
The actual record is marred by the fact the beginnings of both sides a and b are horribly warped and can't be played for the first five minutes, though you might be convinced this isn't so bad as it sounds when you hear the music.
One of the tracks with Roger Nichols from side d:
Anyhow I post this in case someone else out there is curious about this rarity and would like to purchase it not knowing the contents.
