Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Just a wiggle: That's all it took for Leif Garrett to bring his fans to near hysteria at the CNE Grandstand last night. The teen idol's fans were lined up at the gate for hours before the concert and spent a fortune on T-shirts and buttons and hats; all with the imprint of their idol. The 17-year-old singer gave fans just what they wanted.
