Notes:

- "We Shall Be So Free" - song title taken from j-card
- According to a comment on the LMA recording:
"jmci - - January 23, 2010
Subject: Confirmed: Skip Spence
I met and talked with Skip at this show and have a photo of him playing. He borrowed Barry's guitar and Barry watched Skip like a hawk during his song. He may have done another song also, but I'm not certain. This song's title could be "Fall For Me" or "You'll Fall For Me.""
