| Comments | There are two tapes of this show now in circulation ; both have defects but the newly circulating version is much cleaner. The old 90-minute cassette is boomy in the bass and somewhat over-modulated. The newly circulating 2-CD set has a cut in Black Peter at 6:13 with 1:33 lost and 26 seconds of Drums cut from Good Lovin'. The old cassette version has Black Peter and the Good Lovin' Drums intact, but it cuts at 1:26 into the Jam out of China Cat and resumes after a splice close to the beginning of High Time ; the Rider is entirely missing ; and the Turn On Your Love Light also has a cut at around 10 minutes with a couple minutes lost. The timings given above are based on a composite of the two tapes. The performance of Turn On Your Love Light breaks off at 23:15, as Pigpen is starting to wind things up, when power to the stage is cut and all the instruments go dead (but not the vocals mic) -- "they've pulled the plug on us" -- less than 5 minutes short of where Pig would have concluded anyways. But hey, time is money!
