'''''Stereo Concert''''' is [the Kingston Trio](/source/the_Kingston_Trio)'s second [live album](/source/live_album), released in 1959 (see [1959 in music](/source/1959_in_music)). It was never released in monaural—unusual for a record release in 1959.

The original release was issued with the same cover as the group's debut album ''The Kingston Trio''. It was recorded live on December 15, 1958, Liberty Hall, El Paso, TX.

The liner notes do not acknowledge this.<ref>[http://www.lazyka.com/linernotes/TimeLine/TimeLinePg01.htm Kingston Trio Time Line.]</ref>

The album was recorded by a private party and later purchased by Capitol for release.<ref>Liner notes: ''Stereo Concert Plus''. Folk Era re-issue.</ref><ref>[http://www.paulmagnussen.com/nick-reynolds-interview.html Nick Reynolds] interviewed by Paul Magnussen (1987)</ref>
