FILLER
13 /Cissy Strut (unedited)

* Theresa Andersson on vocals; as well as violin and percussion on most of second and third sets.
# Noise reduction on the last 3 minutes of Cissy Strut using Diamond Cut and SoundForge (painstakingly with the pencil tool to "draw out" the crackles in literally scores of frames per second.)  Some residue of crackle remains, most notably toward the very end of the song, as further processing would have had detrimental impact on the music.  If one prefers the unprocessed version, simply skip (disc 3) track 12 when burning (or playing) and track 13 will fit seamlessly after track 11 same as track 12.
