Song List Source

Krogsgaard

DylanBase lists an additional track on the end, "Ranger's Command" (Woody Guthrie). Bjorner, in his calendar summary of events, lists 6 songs performed (presumably including "Rangers Command" in the count) but in the detailed track listing lists only the 5 tracks as above.

However, examination of the recording reveals a cut between Long Time Man Feel Bad and Ranger's Command, and the recording characteristics alter (vocal much louder and more muffled). "Rangers Command" belongs to another source, one which was commonly circulated paired with the above recording, hence the common confusion.

Date Attribution

13 January 1962, could be March 1962: DylanBase
February: Bjorner
February/March 1962: Krogsgaard
Probably March: Dundas

It is clear that the earliest possible date must be 13 February 1962 because the first song performed, "Ballad Of Donald White", was only composed on the evening of 12 February 1962.

All the cited sources agree that March is a possibility and so this would appear to be the latest possible date.
