Comments:
This is from a "liberated" Italian bootleg CD.
For those who MUST know-Entitled "Blues For Allah" on the Triangle label# pycd097.
It also included 3 tracks from 06/17/75 Winterland, I omitted these because that
show already circulates from the same source.

From the Taping Compendium,
I assume these are culled from various studio sessions for the Blues For Allah LP
and that they are from the March, 1975 time period.
All tracks are of outstanding sonic quality (except for Music which suffers from a
horrible cut at the end).

All in all, an interesting look at the embryonic stages of some of my favorite songs.
Enjoy!

Flac st5 generated and matched to Shn st5

Tagging notes:
Show information is embedded within the headerof each flac file.
It will display on any player capable of directly playing flac files.
If converted to wav during processing, all tags will be stripped,
however audio data will remain unaffected.
If you must transcode to a lossy format, do so directly Flac > Lossy.
Use st5 to validate audio integrity.
Md5 values will change if tagging is altered.
