The 9th tune, previously listed as ?The Same Thing (instrumental),? is definitely NOT that song. Although it is a standard blues and sounds similar at the beginning, closer listening makes it pretty obvious that it is an entirely different song, title unknown. The Viola Lee Blues on this expanded version is a different version than on the previous three song version of Pico Acid Test. This is an ongoing mystery, although it should be said that both versions are worth having. Disc 6 Supplementary CD#2 - San Francisco State Acid Test (alternate version) ?Whatever It Is? Festival October 2, 1966 San Francisco State University, San Francisco, CA Stereo Control Room Master (rec. 4:00AM - 6:00AM) Source(s) unknown, this has different lineage, and some different edits to the ?intact? version. Specifically some contemorary (Tomorrow show ?81?) interviews are spliced in, and the sound collages towards the end are presented in a different sequence.
