source:
audience
length: 74 minutes (incomplete)

details:
songs #1-14 (missing "Story of Isaac"*). "So Long Marianne" is cut (a part of the song was edited out) maybe due to a defect with (master?) tape.
- Edit between the two sets (very first guitar notes of "Avalanche" are clipped).
- Edit between "Lover Lover Lover" & "Diamonds In The Mine", and between this last one & "Suzanne".

sounds:
average (B/B-). Set two sounds better than set one, the taper was probably located in a better spot.

fingerprints:
- taper coughs during "Joan Of Arc" (at ~4:20 and ~5:20).
- taper coughs at ~2:00 into "Chelsea Hotel #2" + a woman near taper few seconds later.
- taper coughs at 1:00 of the end of "Suzanne".


comments:
* on the known recording of this concert, there is an edit at the end of "Lover Lover Lover" and then we can hear 2-3 seconds of guitar notes before another edit, it seems to me that this fragment of tape is the guitar intro of "Story of Isaac" so Leonard has maybe played the song in this concert.
