Thanks to Michael Golub (wo PMed me)
I have come to realize that this is in fact the "Wolfgang's Vault"
version of this '70 Fillmore West show. The version I have dld via
Zappateers is a different one,
would be nice to compare the two,
so I guess I'd better stay in here, i.e. sign back in.
Shouldn't have jumped off in the first place, LOL ...
Thanks again and sorry about the confusion.
