Released on LP as 'Hugh Masekela Live At The Record Plant, 24th February 1974' (Discogs release 17971270 = URL1; JazzMessengers LP listing = URL2), a broadcast-series reissue.

LP tracklist: Rekpete, Patience/When, Languta, Stimela (Coal Train), Nye Tamo Ame, Omusu Da Fe M'musu, Love Song for a Jungle Afternoon. 'Stimela' is Masekela's signature anti-apartheid migrant-labour anthem, first recorded 1974, so this broadcast catches it new. Date 1974-02-24 was a Sunday, matching the Sunday-night slot; all sources agree on the date, no year-slip concern.
