I got it as a soundboard, but i think is it a super quality audience.

Master reel to reel  > eaqualizer > cd > eac > wav > flac.

Notes :

Discussing at the time with John about this master, i remember he told
me that in his opinion the tape's speed on this was a little faster
than usual, cause it was originally recorded in that way. Honestly,
is it hard to tell, you can may be notice that in some songs like Mona
but i'm not sure about it. By the way, i only equalized a bit this tape,
i don't wanna mess up with the tape speed, cause comparing this with
other ten quicksilver master recordings i have from 67, i've noticed that
the tape speed is slightly different in any one of them. Is it just a
miracle to have this show in this sound quality after 40 years, expecially
comparing it to the versions of this show in circulation.

Comments:
- 10/5/67 source is possibly from a KSAN-FM broadcast; this copy is a number of generations removed from the original recording
- Track 15: Actual spelling as published by writer Buffy Sainte-Marie is "Cod'ine".  Both "Codeine" and "Codine" often appear as variations of that title.
- Track 17: Left channel out 1:03; fades back up at 1:12, then fluctuates until 1:18 when proper level returns to normal

Ed Perlstein, who has archived collections by Nick Gravenites, Spencer Dryden, Steve Keyser (John Cipollina’s manager) and others, and who currently possesses John Cipollina’s personal tapes, was given the approval of John’s sister, Antonia, to share John’s live and studio outtake recordings in the interest of keeping his music alive for future generations.  Steve Keyser, who recorded most of John's live shows with several different bands while he was his manager, has allowed Ed to digitize his master cassettes, and to share them with John’s fans and collectors.
