Notes

Stereo Audience unknown generation

Not perfect by today's clear digital standards, but pretty good considering it's 1970. It's a bit dodgy at first (heads not lined up), but settles down after a bit.

Hendrix died that day, that's why Earth Angel is dedicated to him; the source for the bulk of the show has this song cut off before completion.

A fine set including a nice version of Bellerin' Plain.
