So there’s some pretty interesting commentary about this fragment over on Archive and GD Setlists. If you look at the show you posted earlier from 1/23/68, it has a cut Spanish Jam at the end of the medley. Several folks postulate that this partial Spanish Jam from 1/27/68 is the continuation of that Spanish Jam, after the tape flip. And if you look at the poster on the cover art from the Quick and the Dead tour, they only played Seattle on 1/26 and 1/27. So the commentators think the show that many label as 1/22 is actually 1/26 and the show labeled 1/23 is actually 1/27 and this fragment completes that jam. I listened to the two together today and they do fit with one another. We will never know but it is a very interesting theory. I am going to give this fragment a “home” with Other One/ Clementine/New Potato Caboose/Born Cross Eyed/Spanish Jam from 1/23 and call it all 1/27.
