Legendary pioneers of acid rock from their begining at notorious
Red Dog Sallon in Virginia City in June 1965 till their ultimate
show at the San Francisco Fillmore West in June 1969!

I never saw The Charlatans on Dime, so if I'm right this could be
the first torrent ever!

I don't know any technical information about recording, but for
the for the place and the time of recording sound is pretty good.

This is a piece of unknown rock'n'roll history and this torrent
includes some pretty damn exciting music with high historical and
collector value. That historical value more than compensates any
limitations which originate from analogue master.

I got this recording on weird CD with words "2003 Hanging Dog" on
cover.
I removed official tracks and this is the rest.

NOTE: The Charlatans played "Wabash Cannonball" at the Red Dog Saloon
high on acid and in the middle of the song they lost direction and
rhythm and they stopped playing.

This is dedicated to all SF 1960's psychedelic scene fans, and for all
great people who share SF bands (Quicksilver, Dead, Airplane...).

Share and enjoy.
