The Troubadour is a historic nightclub/venue (not a large concert hall), located in West Hollywood, California. It opened in 1957, has a capacity of around 500, and is famous as an intimate spot for folk, rock, singer-songwriters, and soul artists. It helped launch or boost careers like Elton John, James Taylor, and many others.

Exact date for this specific performance ("We Need You Right Now"): No publicly documented single-night date is tied directly to the track in official releases or detailed sources. It comes from Donny Hathaway’s live recordings at the Troubadour in Los Angeles (sometimes noted as Hollywood), which were made during his multi-night stands there—primarily associated with August 24–30, 1971 (for the Live album material) and similar early 1970s shows. en.wikipedia.org
Tracks on the 1980 posthumous album In Performance (including "We Need You Right Now" and "Sack Full of Dreams") are labeled as recorded live at the Troubadour. Some sources link parts of these to the 1971 run, with additional material from other venues like the Bitter End and Carnegie Hall. discogs.com
These were not one-off dates but part of residencies/stand engagements typical for the era, with recordings drawn from the best takes across nights.
The performance you linked is the definitive live version from those sessions—no studio take exists. If you're looking for more context on setlists or other recordings from those nights, sites like setlist.fm have partial info from the 1971 Troubadour shows.
