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:

- Electric Flag and Steppenwolf also played

Notes:

- This is the original mix
- All tracks have been pitch corrected.
- The original reel was degraded and this caused some dropouts in the left channel. Repairs have been made and it sounds better but isn't perfect.
