Source 2:

Sometimes you go to etree and look at a show that you have. It may have pages of owners so
I think oh well not a rare one. But some like this one, have very few owners ( only 1 in this case ).
Definatly an Old School Recording, not bad sound with no idea on the generations.

  1. The second source could be from this film sountrack, from Needle onwards. Originally broadcast in 1972(!).

  2. Hey Mat. Sorry for the late reply. Been a very busy couple of days. I do see what you’re saying. It is odd. For me the biggest sign the second source is from a different show is that Heart of Gold is played twice and the second time on piano. To my knowledge he only did that on the early 71 acoustic tour. But again, with Neil who knows? Hey mztoinen – I have never heard of this documentary. Do you now if it’s online?

    1. Hey Michael, just found the setlist on etree 1972-?-?. Don’t have it. The reason I believe the source 2 is from late January like 1971-01-22 is that Neil sings “Man is afraid” in Man needs a maid. He changed that line at the end of January and recorded the song early February and probably used the recorded line since. I think the songlisting in source 2 makes sense if you see the transition from Ohio—-Don’t Let It Bring You Down created on the cutting table for the document and not actually done by Neil. Cheers, MZ

        1. Gotcha. Thanks. So we both agree it’s definitely not from 72. I was wondering if the documentary was online. Have you ever seen it?

  3. Have not seen the document. It was rebroadcast “Eins Festival” 11. June 2011. And there seems to be a JTT remaster around. I was hoping Mat could find it. 🙂 😉

    1. Thanks for the conversation. It is all very interesting. So are we definitely saying the second source on this comes from that documentary or are we still guessing at it? I looked for the audio for the documentary in my files but I’m not seeing it just yet.

  4. If he says so I’ll concur. All 7 songs were played on that date. I definitely agree it’s from January 1971
