J-Card Comment David Sorochty: this tape is mislabeled compilation tape of material from 11/19/66.
This tape was in circulation for years before the complete 11/19/66 became available.
There is some reverb at the beginning of High-Heeled Sneakers which must have been
added later since it is the 11/19/66 performance, which does not have the reverb.

Jim Powell: All tapes circulated marked with this date are mislabeled.
High Heel Sneakers, Cold Rain and Snow, and Smokestack Lightning are all 11/19/66;
the Smokestack Lightning > King Bee is Studio 67.

Teddy GoodBear: While it may be true that all tapes marked with this date are mislabeled,
I have a Smokestack Lightning that I got in the late 70's marked "2/12/67". I'm not able
to tell whether it is a studio or show version, but it definetly is NOT 11/19/66.
It also seems to end without going into anything; as being not the same as below (??/??/67)
"Smokestack Lightning > I'm a King Bee" entry. I agree with the few that believe Smokestack
being played in 1966 was too early!

Teddy GoodBear later goes on to say: My Smokestak tape (which sounds very slow) is as follows
- Bob Weir Interview* [1:20] (talks about Mime troupe billed as GD formally the Warlocks,

Bill Graham calling Billy K. for advice & Bill Graham is the one with the clipboard at
the trips Festival). *Where is this from? If anybody has the rest of this interview,
let me know. Smokestack# [to 9:41#] Now, I'm not sure if it's different than 11/19/66.
It may be the same as Jim said. Being so slow it's hard to tell. I didn't. remember
the cut I had, but there is a cut none the less. Perhaps someone with pitch control
can speed it up & compare it to the 11/19/66 one.
