::: EXC- studio quality. Check samples for tests or tastes.
::: Warts: #01,02,03 are all just fragments of songs, some with studio talk. #05 has some guitar pick noises in parts & ~6 secs intermittent mike or guitar cable shorting. 
::: (*)Reel had no location but likely in John's home studio. Definitely in California.
:: #04 a tasty gospel number! #05 a fine card-playin' blues that morphs into talkin' blues.

::: Nothing here ever released, trax clearly rehearsals. Corrected song titles&other musician names would be welcome.

DimeTravel 844 ::: Thanks to the original taper & trader! Sincere thanks to whomever uploads this for me. ::: Corrections welcome ::: Prepped this in 2014 but never got it totally done, so did a touch of revamping fixing a couple more things & 7 years on, here 'tis. Basically the first 3 bits are a one-time listen, then the next 2 pieces are VERY enjoyable. Hop to it. Listen, enjoy, show appreciation, share, give, spread peace. Yrs truly, Knees
