Set II

Claimed to be a pre-FM recording. Mix is good but not perfect. Sound becomes darker after Feel, is a bit hissy, and varies a bit throughout. Remastered from 2nd generation tape, with the last two tracks taken from 3rd geneneration tape. The last two tracks have a bit more hiss than the rest, thus the 9/8 rating in sound quality.

A gem! Includes great Blissard stuff.

Highlights: This first known recording of the embryonic Like Always has some passages and lyrics which ended up in Back To Source later on.

Nothing To Say has a very cool middle part which eventually turns into the Mountain riff.

The Wheel is rather short, but still great, reaching climax after only 9 minutes, venturing on into Hogwash. The last minute of Hogwash seems to be the beginning of Blueberry Daydream, but they soon abandon it and tear into California Dreamin' which sadly fades out halfway through.
