[1] "Big Gar's Breakdown (aka Jerry's Breakdown)", per OSF, which informs that this one is closer to his 1963 breakdown than to his Old And In The Way era one. We are grateful to Jesse Jarnow for disambiguating the earlier versions for us.

Notes
  • Setlist (and scans) generously shared by the Owsley Stanley Foundation (OSF). Bear's reel #6 notes Dick Stanley on "extra fiddle" and Fred Sokolow on dobro.
  • The remarkable Corry Arnold pieced the possibility of this "Stealth Jerry" gig over at the hooterollin around blog. The late Pat Campbell remembered the event, and also recalled that there were twin banjos, Jerry and Robert Earl Davis. Pat also noted that things were rather spontaneous, which aligns with the contrary venue information in the papers.
