Notes
  • Placeholder for the material conventionally traveling as "August 5, 1970 at Golden Hall in San Diego, CA". As per Deadessays post, "There is no evidence that this show took place. The tape of an acoustic show with this date is from an unknown small club show, possibly a July show at the Matrix or Lion’s Share, not from San Diego." JGMF disagrees with the "small club" statement, as the amount of crowd and the room sound don't seem right for those. He conjectures this material might be from the Thee Club shows in LA at the end of the month.
