| J-Card Comment | This set is generally circulated as 9/14/67 but that date can't be right. Jim Murrary was gone by 8/18/67, according to Faren Miller's Quicksilver Diaries, which are available on the Cipollina Yahoo group. Therefore, I picked a new date. I chose a September 1966 Fillmore date, 9/4/66, with the assumption that someone got the year wrong years after the event. Possible further confirmation of the year is that the recording is mono, whereas the great Feb. 1967 Quicksilver Fillmore West soundboards are stereo. If this were truly Sept. 1967, it should be stereo, I would think. Note that this version, which is from a cassette and not any previous digital source, includes Dino's Song to begin the second set. This song is missing from most circulating versions. As for the recording quality, it's pretty good soundboard. However, the vocals are too loud compared to the guitars. The tape was pretty hissy so I rolled of the treble over 10kHz and used some light digital noise reduction in Adobe Audition. There are some artifacts, esp. on the cymbals, but I think the tradeoff was worth it. The cassette also included four other songs. Two I was able to identify as having already in slightly better quality on "Marin County Cowboys," so they aren't included. The other two are included here as bonus tracks. All Night Worker is a similar recording to the "Live in San Jose" September 1966 version, but it's different. Pride of Man, judging from the applause at the beginning, may be a TV broadcast. first set 01. Got My Mojo Working 02. Dino's Song 03. Hair Like Sunshine 04. Acapulco Gold and Silver 05.

| Comment | Simon Moulds notes: The date/venue is doubtful as: 1 - the Fillmore West didn't open until late '68. (although there was a Fillmore Auditorium in 1967; the similar names cause confusion) 2 - The original Fillmore doesn't list QMS as playing on this date (see the Fillmore Last Days booklet for every show played at the Fillmore & Fillmore West, also the Artrock book shows the poster for this date with no mention of QMS). If the date is correct, then the venue is likely to be elsewhere. If the venue is correct, then the date is wrong. I'm not complaining, it's a nice recording but I AM curious to know when and where it's really from. Any ideas? Steve Keyser's list show this date as being at Fillmore West but only a 45 minutes recording. It therefore seems unlikely that this show took place at the Fillmore West. Update: It's now confirmed, that this is a bogus date. By reference to Wolfgang's Vault it's now clear that the first set took place on 09/04/66 and the second on 11/20/66 both at the Fillmore Auditorium |
