Ed Perlstein, who has archived collections by Nick Gravenites, Spencer Dryden, Steve Keyser (John Cipollina’s manager) and others, and who currently possesses John Cipollina’s personal tapes, was given the approval of John’s sister, Antonia, to share John’s live and studio outtake recordings in the interest of keeping his music alive for future generations. Steve Keyser, who recorded most of John's live shows with several different bands while he was his manager, has allowed Ed to digitize his master cassettes, and to share them with John’s fans and collectors.

Comments:

- Includes solo spots by each of them, apart from Barry +
- Mick spoke to Barry recently to ask him when the name "MuSiC" was used. He told him that it was usually when Peter and Spencer were not available and their places would be filled by friends. This show appears to be the exception that proves the rule.

They are clearly shown as being MuSiC for this show, in the San Francisco Examiner.
