This torrent contains just the last track, 'Mona', and is being uploaded as an addendum to amellowsoul's post of 38f's better-sounding version of the show (which does not include 'Mona')

Novato Frank Band
Inn Of The Beginning
Cotati, CA
October 31, 1978

Lineage: MR(Cass)>CD>EAC>FLAC

This is a fairly rare live gig of the Novoto Frank Band playing a Halloween show with an all-star line up (John Cipollina, Barry Melton, Jim McPherson (Copperhead), Bobby Vega & Greg Anton (Zero) and Greta Rose (Heart of Gold Band). The band dressed up in their Halloween best (John was a vampire) for the show.

The quality of the show and performance is pretty good. Technically this is neither an audience or SBd, but a "stage" tape. Being a rookie at taping, I got John's permission to tape and then made a stupid move, I taped my mics (Sony condensers) to the mic stands! Under ordinary circumstances I might have been immeadiately shot, but got lucky becuase the show was taped for a local cable tv show (no idea what happened to the video), so everyone assumed the mics were their for the video taping. Frank did undo one of my mics from his mic stand towards the end of the show.

During the Funeral March, They brought out John's copper coffin and placed it in front of the stage, at which point John popped out. Baby Please Don't Go has a fairly long jam with John using his effects pedals throughout. Mona was played between sets and featured John and a bunch of unidentified people (but none of the Novoto Frank Band). John's roadie/assistant Anthony played the drums.

This was previously circulated via a CD Tree a few years ago and posted on Furthur.net as an MP3.
