Notes

Issued in Rykodisc green tinted CD jewel case.
Ryko / FZ logo on rear insert and CD label.
FZ approved master, 1993.

"Most of the material in this double set was recorded Dec. 10, 11 & 12, 1973, at The Roxy, Hollywood. Other portions were extracted from road tapes (4-track 15-ips masters) of show #2, Mothers Day, 1974, at the Auditorium Theater in Chicago and the gymnasium extravaganza at Edinboro State College, Pennsylvania, May 8, 1974.
Some of the material has been overdubbed (Bolic Studios & Paramount Studios, Hollywood), but all basic tracks are live. The Roxy remote recording was done on 16-track 30-ips. None of the road material has been overdubbed."

Digitally remastered 1990 for UMRK at Precision Mastering.
