Notes:
This recording comes from the archives of the Golden Bear night club in Huntingon Beach, California.
At the time, the Golden Bear was the oldest running night club in America -- open since the mid 1920's.
Eventually earthquake building codes made it too expensive to upgrade, and it was eventually torn down.
Everybody from Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, and The Doors have played at the Golden Bear.
I was a frequent patron of the Golden Bear, and I recorded a few shows at the venue. Eventually I
became friends with the sound board guy, and we began trading some tapes. This recording is one of
those tapes.
Like many of the Golden Bear tapes, this one isn't a complete show. The recording starts in the
middle of a song, and cuts off in the middle of another. Since the Golden Bear usually ran 60-70
minute sets, it's very likely that the last 15-20 minutes are missing.
The concert was recorded from the sound board on the house cassette deck in mono.
