This is an alternate source to:
1967 12 03 Ann Arbor 44.10 SBD (WIU2B-LudzNL-fl) speed corrected

After careful examination of source material and the recordings themselves it's been determined that is is the complete version of what is available of this performance. Big Leg Emma amd King Kong widely booted and traded as the first two songs are thought to be from 1969 08 08. They are not from this date and place.

At this time it is believed that this is most likely the correct date and place of this recording there remains a possibility that it's not.
