Ed Perlstein, who has archived collections by Nick Gravenites, Spencer Dryden, Steve Keyser (John Cipollina’s manager) and others, and who currently possesses John Cipollina’s personal tapes, was given the approval of John’s sister, Antonia, to share John’s live and studio outtake recordings in the interest of keeping his music alive for future generations. Steve Keyser, who recorded most of John's live shows with several different bands while he was his manager, has allowed Ed to digitize his master cassettes, and to share them with John’s fans and collectors.

The start of Side B with ‘Working For The Ensenada’ (with a ‘this is KSAN San Francisco’ announcement preceding a continuous set of music) appears to be a transition leading into a subsequent set. Accordingly, this has been marked as the beginning of the 3rd set. It is also possible that these are partial sets and other songs may have been played. Opening song The Dance starts abuptly and was faded in.
