Sources On Stage -- Marinelli 1997:178 (conductor: Anton Guadagno), Allen Combs informed me that this recording is in fact a NY performance (Met), and that place and date on OnStage OS 4708 are wrong: see 1971/05/31 Met New York. Philadelphia had an Aida performance on this day, but with Mignon Dunn (Amneris), Bonaldo Giaiotti (Ramfis), Manuel Ausensi (Amonasro), and Guadagno conducting: see Frank Hamilton‘s calendar of Philadelphia performances at http://FrankHamilton.org
