*Source for the KSAN stuff is questionable. It might be the audience taper
that is heard being busted for at least the first part of disc 1. There
is little audience noise throughout, so, it is likely that the KSAN source
is correct, although the degradation of the sound is enough to make one
think that it could be an audience.

** Taper being busted by band was moved by Gans to before Sugar Magnolia,
but, it belongs before China Cat (both are present).

Portions of the show noted as FMS are most likely from an audience recoding.
Deadkists notes the following:

Two separate tapes make up the circulating recordings from this show.
Video of the concert was broadcast by KQED-TV San Francisco with the first
4 songs simulcast on KSAN-FM San Francisco. The circulating tape of these
tunes is the AUD tape; on the circulating tape there is a cut in Monkey
And The Engineer at around 1:00 and Easy Wind breaks off about 3 minutes
before its conclusion. According to DeadBase IX a Me And My Uncle followed
Easy Wind; but if so there is no trace of it on circulating tape. This
tape is actually from the audience tape whose tapers are apprehended
between Sugar Mag and China Cat; it is quite an excellent AUD tape. It
was recorded on Sony ECM-22P mics into a Sony 770 1/4-track reel recorder
at 7.5 ips by the same night crew that did the El Monte '70 tapes, the
Hollywood Palladium 8/71 AUDs, 7/1/73 -- who was that Masked Man?

The other tape in circulation is a pre-broadcast SBD from KQED-TV; it picks
up with Big Railroad Blues. In the pause before Dire Wolf they Tease
Cryptical repeatedly. The Other One goes directly into Black Peter,
entirely eliding the Cryptical Envelopment Reprise and Jam. In the
interval between Sugar Mag and China Cat a taper in the audience is busted,
with Phil directing a spotlight upon him. In the background of the China
Cat > Rider that follows, but definitely on mic, there is a lady screaming
out of control -- she sounds very dosed, spun out hard, and at the moment
not really having that much fun. She screws up the recording of China Cat
> Rider pretty good and continues some in the pause that follows, where
there's also a woman on mic looking for her cape -- plainly things were a
little out of control backstage; perhaps there was a mic live that shouldn'
t have been somewhere backstage or in the wings.

The show-concluding Good Lovin' > Uncle John's Band that follows is an
alltime classic.....
---------------------------------

I'd take issue with the statement that the audience tape is quite excellent
