This is a rare concert of Harry Nilsson performing 'A Little Touch of Schmilsson In The Night', arranged and conducted by Gordon Jenkins who also wrote "This Is All I Ask". It was recorded in March 1973 (straight after the album had finished recording at CTS Studios, Wembley) at the BBC Television Theatre (latterly the Shepherd's Bush Empire) and broadcast that June to coincide with the album's release.

This 'concert', like the TV special http://youtu.be/w0rOOdjQUIU has Harry performing without an audience.

'I'm Always Chasing Rainbows' and 'Over The Rainbow' are performed here despite not being included on the eventual album release in June 1973. Both of these songs include snippets of other songs as their introductions ('I'm Always Chasing Rainbows' features 'What'll I Do', 'Over The Rainbow' has 'It Had To Be You'), unlike their album replacements 'You Made Me Love You' and 'Lullaby In Ragtime', which makes me conclude that this performance is the original track listing of the album. The studio versions of those tracks only appeared in 1988 on 'A Touch More Schmilsson In The Night'.
