Notes
-

This LP contains some tracks recorded at the same time as those issued on " Live at the L.A. Troubadour" and some that were actually released on that LP.

  • Track 2 is re-edited and remixed and is longer than the original version
  • Tracks 3 is re-mastered and listed wrongly as " Toss the Feathers"
  • Track 4 is a different take from that released on the earlier LP
  • Track 6 is re-mastered
  • Track 7 is re-edited and remixed and is shorter than the original version and is just listed as " Mason's Apron"
