Notes/Flaws:
- Amazing material!!! Essence of Legion of Mary -- nothing
but pure, unadulterated instrumentals.  Among many, many
highlights, I will simply note that this version of People
Make the World Go 'Round is about five times longer than
any of the many other versions in circulation.  It really
takes the tune places you always thought it should have
gone, but never seemed to.  I felt similarly at many points
during this material.
- This is a mono recording.
- Most songs clip in.
- Favela faded to a splice @ 10:42 on the original CD copy,
but this turned out to be during an 18-second repeated section.
Similarly, Valdez in the Country faded to a splice @ 7:57, but this was
during a 48 second repeated section.  Both obviously stem from
analog generations somewhere up the line. I edited them out,
and the tunes are seamlessly intact.
- Pennies From Heaven splice @ 10:46. This is most probably a
tape flip from the master. There is also a bit of very light
static around 16:55-16:56, which I could not fix.
- This is probably not the whole show, since the band is tuning
when the tape cuts out.

- Note added 10/22/2005: d1t04, previously listed only as "Jam #5", has been identifed as "When I Die" by the group Motherlode.

Huge thanks to Ed Perlstein for the source discs!!
