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.
