Tech Note | Total time [2:30:05 +].
There are two SBD masters of this show --
reels and cassettes. One master has 6 minutes cut from the Cryptical
reprise; the other master (or circulating copies) cuts in just after the
beginning of The Other One and runs unbroken through to the conclusion of
the set. Between them, the two masters contain the complete show.
Composites circulate, but also many partial combinations and unpatched
fragmentary versions of That's It For The Other One. Collector beware.
The Eleven analyzes: St. Stephen > 1st vocals 1:06 > transition jam 2:25 >

> transition 0:48 > Lovelight.
SBD of parts of this show have circulated for years, sometimes mislabeled
"Family Dog 8/29/69." About an hour of FM excerpts were broadcast in the
early 90s. Copies of one of the masters only emerged recently and optimal
complete composites are finally beginning to circulate.
Rob Bertrando writes: "The partial reel master of 6/5/69" is plagued by
'scrape flutter.'" Eaton's list reads:
