  • It is possible there was also a Garcia session on this date. The Grateful Dead session started at 6pm and ran until 1am.
  • Five reels were recorded. Two contain a total of 16 takes of "U.S. Greys" (lol) aka US Blues, 5 of them complete. Two more contain a total of 12 takes of "Finance Blues" aka Money Money, mostly incomplete. The last contains 3 takes of Unbroken Chain, two of them complete.
  • Take 16 of "U.S. Greys" is noted as "Best - pull it -->". Some earlier takes have critical notes like "sloppy", "uneven", "out of groove"; take 8 is noted as "good".
