Notes
  • review: [positive] Beales 1975. Notes Roadrunner and ISTE. She really emphasizes the rapport of the musicians, the absence of egos.
  • Uncirculated tape supplies most of the setlist. However the tape running order appears to perhaps not match the show order. Roadrunner and ISTE are mentioned in the Beales review, but placement uncertain. Also TJS had a similar, but not identical setlist.
  • Sue: Band guarantee $7,000 plus 60% over $10,500 for two shows (17th and 18th). This first night nearly a sellout, second night half full.
