      "notes": "Tape notes:\n- Same root recording as the ID-11258 AUD tracks; sorry, the sound is degraded and hissy at times.\n- All the stand-alone songs cut in & out abruptly, with bits missing; half-second fades were added.\n- The speed was wildly all over the place, adjustments were made by song, but it's far from perfect.\n- There's some blurry tape-damage beginning parts of Promised Land, Mexicali Blues, and Truckin'.\n\nShow notes:\n- Newspaper & attendee accounts report a three set show; possibly there was a break somewhere in \"Set 1\".\n- The reviewer states El Paso was played; either he was mistaken, or perhaps it was before Casey Jones.\n- Dickey Betts sat-in for Sugar Magnolia, sadly this song is missing from these cassettes.\n- For Not Fade Away thru Johnny B Goode, Phil sat-out; Dickey Betts, Berry Oakley, and Jaimoe sat-in.",
