Description
up for Auction is a RARE VINTAGE ZZ TOP - WORLD WIDE TEXAS TOUR - FOR RADIO vinyl 33 album promo PS-X-1001
Encompassing five legs and 97 shows, the tour began in Winston-Salem, North Carolina on May 29, 1976 and ended in Fort Worth, Texas on December 31, 1977. After two arena and stadium legs, the tour's itinerary was expanded to include auditoriums for the final three legs, which was scheduled after the cancellation of performances in Europe, Australia, and Japan. Despite a variety of reactions from music critics, the tour was generally well-received. In addition to being one of the highest-grossing US tours of 1976, the Worldwide Texas Tour sold approximately 1.2 million tickets over its five legs. The band's 1976 album Tejas, which elaborated on the tour's artistic theme, was recorded during a break in the tour, and its songs were played in 1977. Critics regard the Worldwide Texas Tour as one of rock's most memorable tours—in 2008, Guitar World?s Alan di Perna called it "one of the most ambitious and bizarre tours in all of rock history"
I purchased a lot of records locally the person I purchased them from told me that they used to live in Wisconsin, After sorting through them I found several promo and radio station records some of which were stamped with WIBA-FM I have included a brief history of the radio station below this record is not stamped
Originally licensed to the city of Madison, Wisconsin (the station's city of license would be moved to Sauk City in the 2010s), WIBA-FM commenced broadcasting on October 31, 1969, simulcasting the signal of its AM sister station, WIBA (1310 kHz). During the 1970s, WIBA-FM would move to a freeform/contemporary rock-and-roll format, featuring local artists through such programs as Television, WIBA-FM's simulcast of the WMTV late-night weekend music program. In 1981 WIBA-FM overnight switched to its classic rock format.
