Notes: Paul Butterfield's Better Days 12/30/1973 Record Plant Sausalito, CA USA Plus Filler (KSAN/Record Plant without Geoff Muldaur) 01. Intro 02. Walkin' Blues 03. Take Your Pleasure Where You Find It 04. Broke My Baby's Heart 05. Done a Lot of Wrong Things 06. Piano intro 07. He's Got All the Whiskey 08. It All Comes Back 09. Down at the Bottom 10. Too Many Drivers (KILLER Filler with Geoff Muldaur and Amos Garrett in the band) 11. Piano Intro 12. He's Got All the Whiskey 13. Nobody’s Fault But Mine 14. Please Send Me Somebody To Love Audio CD ripped to hard drive using Exact Audio Copy, FLAC via Trader's Little Helper FRANK got this in the same batch as the Geoff Muldaur (originally credited as Geoff and Amos Garrett but Amos ain’t on it) that he recently uploaded. It is identified as Betterdays December 30, 1973, but that’s only part of the story. The Paul Butterfield Better Days December 30, 1973 gig was broadcast over KSAN and has been on tracker. Here’s the info file from a reseed (thanks to BillfromMA) that hit the tracker February 1, 2007, I believe it is the info file from the original upload: I got this a couple of years ago and thought there may be some interest again. This is different from the Butterfield Blues Band, but still great music. The Better Days band included Amos Garrett, Geoff and Maria Muldaur, Ronnie Barron and Billy Rich. Thanks go to the original seeder whoever you may be.

He got two discs, with different tracking (there’s an intro as Track01, Ronnie Barron's piano mess around intro to He's Got All The Whiskey is broken out into a separate track) and more than 8 tracks. The songs that match the KSAN/Record Plant set listed above are all there. Missing, quite obviously to my ears, is Geoff Muldaur, and when Butterfield announces the members of the band he doesn’t mention Geoff. But Geoff is clearly on the rest of the tracks, including doing the lead vocals on the Percy Mayfield classic, “Please Send Me Somebody To Love.” Similarly, Amos Garrett appears to be missing from the KSAN tracks. 01. Intro 02. Walkin' Blues 03. Take Your Pleasure Where You Find It 04. Broke My Baby's Heart 05. Done a Lot of Wrong Things 06. He's Got All the Whiskey 07. It All Comes Back 08. Down at the Bottom 09. Too Many Drivers 10. He's Got All the Whiskey 11. Nobody’s Fault But Mine 12. Please Send Me Somebody To Love So I’m trying to figure out where the other three tracks come from. I can tell you that they are not officially released, even as bonus tracks to cd releases of the two Better Days albums (and there are bonus tracks on both cds, Louise, Small Town Talk and a single version of New Walkin Blues according to http://www.mediawars.ne.jp/~mundo/collect/file/p-butterfield.html). I can tell you that two of the three songs are not a part of the Better Days set on the Bonnie Raitt/Better Days torrent from Los Angeles. I can tell you that the timings on the tracks for the Live at the Winterland release that is currently available at Wolfgang’s Vault (http://www.wolfgangsvault.com/paul-butterfields-better-days/concerts/winterland-february-23-1973.html) are not the same as the timings of these tracks. But I can’t tell you where the tracks were performed, recorded or when. One of the people I contacted said they played a gig at Harvard Square in Cambridge that was sponsored by a local Boston radio station, but didn’t know if it was broadcast. Radio stations sponsoring rock shows is fairly common. I would guess that most of the concerts were sponsored by the local radio station. And I can’t find an itinerary for Better Days. In my research I found some photos of members of the band, http://www.rickmcgrath.com/butterfieldpix.html, if you are interested. Blues Access ran a series on Butterfield, the portion about Better Days is available (albeit abridged) at http://www.bluesaccess.com/No_29/butter.html. Well worth reading.
